Terminology used in this manual Print controller Prepare a computer to be used as a RIP, install the supplied system software, and connect the included USB don- gle to the computer. The computer in such conditions is called “print controller”. Your dealer or authorized service representative will install and set up the system software on the RIP computer. Job The original data sent from the computer is not directly sent to the printer but temporarily stored in the print con- troller. The data in this status is called a “job”. Queue The jobs stored in the print controller are lined up in a “window” for executing print processing. Various settings on how to process the stored jobs can be registered in this “window” in advance. This “window” is called a “queue”. Log in To create your own jobs, a login ID and password are required. The act of inputting such information in order to access network and device is called “login”. RIP “RIP” stands for “Raster Image Processor”. The input data is converted into the bit map data through this "RIP" process. Computer/Personal computer The “computer” or “personal computer” is a computer that has the user software (printer driver or utility software) installed. From this personal computer, you can send the data to the print controller via network. The RISO Con- sole and utility software can be operated from the personal computer. 2 Icons Used in This Manual Contents Preface
