Tandem Connection Setting
When two machines are used as network printers using TCP/IP protocol, use this setting to configure the port number and IP address of the machine used as the tandem slave machine.
Disabling of Master Machine Mode
To prohibit tandem transmission, enable this setting. (Normally this setting is not necessary.)
Disabling of Slave Machine Mode
To prohibit tandem reception, enable this setting. (Normally this setting is not necessary.)
To use the tandem function when user authentication is enabled, the same login name and password must be used on both the master machine and slave machine. If the same login name and password are not used, the page count may not be added to the appropriate user count or only the master machine may print.
The factory default setting for the port number is [50001]. Unless you experience difficulty with this setting, do not change the port number.
Detect Standard in Auto Color Mode
When the color mode is set to auto in copy mode, the discrimination point for detecting whether originals are color or black and white can be set to one of 5 levels.
