Basic Printing Method
This section explains the basic procedure for printing using the driver.

NOTE
The printing procedure varies according to the application. For details, refer to the manuals provided with each application. In a network environment using IPP or WSD, check whether IPP printing or WSD printing is set to on at the device. For details, refer to the manuals provided with the device. In Windows 8/8.1, when printing from the Windows Store app, if you have previously selected settings that require input or a procedure when printing such as secure printing, department ID management, etc., the message [The printer requires your attention. Go to the desktop to take care of it.] is displayed. If this happens, move to the desktop and follow the instructions in the displayed dialog box. For more information on using the print options, see the Where to Find Help.
