Please see the online manual about the install method and the concrete usage.


4. Cautions, Limitations, and Restrictions -------------------------------------

- Ghostscript which includes common API is required to use this printer driver.
  Make sure to install Ghostscript before installing this printer driver.
  Refer to the following URL to find out how to get Ghostscript.
  http://opfc.sourceforge.jp/index.html.en

- If you install "cndrvcups-common" package version 2.00, make sure you install 
  the same version of the "cndrvcups-ufr2" package, i.e. 2.00.

- Update install is not available when you update to the version 1.40 or later, 
  as the file names are not consistent with the older versions. If you have
  older version on your computer, you have to uninstall the older driver then 
  install the new driver.

- If more than two drivers are installed using the LIPSLX, UFRII(US), and UFRII
  (UK) driver install packages, and only one of these drivers is updated, an 
  error will occur.
  This problem can be solved by updating all of the installed drivers together.

- When specifying multiple pages/copies for [Page Layout] in the [General]
  sheet to print a document created with StarSuite7/OpenOffice, due to a cause
  of operation by the CUPS module, settings are not correctly assigned to the
  multiple pages and output.

- PostScript files created with the number of copies specified in OpenOffice.org
  or StarSuite are affected not by the value specified by [Number of copies] in
  the [cngplp] dialog box (the driver UI), but by the number of copies set when
  creating the PostScript file.

- If settings are changed from the driver UI, during print processing, the
  printed result will reflect the changed settings.

- If [Brightness and Gamma] is specified in the [General] sheet from an
  application such as OpenOffice.org, GIMP, or Acrobat Reader v.5.0, the settings
  will be invalid.

- If you set [Filter] to [HP-GL/2 options] in the [Filter] sheet of the printer
  driver UI, due to a cause of operation by the CUPS module, the [Pen width]
  setting is invalid.

- You cannot print a PDF document by directly specifying it from the desktop or
  command line. When printing a PDF document, it is recommended that you print
  it from Acrobat Reader or Adobe Reader.

- The maximum number of files that can be held in the print queue when printing
  is 500 according to CUPS specifications. Files queued after the 500th file will
  be ignored.

- If you are using SUSE LINUX Professional 9.3, the driver UI may display 
  unintelligible characters. You can solve this problem using the following 
  method.
  1) Log in as 'root'.
  2) Execute the following command to change the GTK+ environment settings.
     # cd /etc/
     # ln -s opt/gnome/gtk ./

- If you are using SUSE LINUX Professional 9.3, a warning may occur when you
  activate the driver UI. You can solve this problem using the following 
  method.
  1) Open [K Menu] -> [Control Center].
  2) Select [Appearance & Themes].
  3) Select [Colors].
  4) Deselect [Apply colors to non-KDE applications].
  5) Close [Control Center].

- When printing from OpenOffice.org, some finishing functions such as [Rotate]
  may not operate correctly if you specify multiple copies for [Number of 
  copies] in the driver UI.

- If you are using SUSE Linux 9.3 or SUSE Linux 10.0, and are printing from the 
  [Print] dialog box of Mozilla or FireFox, because the multiple copies setting 
  is not enabled, you can print only one copy regardless of how many copies you 
  have specified.  This problem can be solved by changing the following line in 
  the file "/etc/cups/mime.convs".
  [Before change]
   application/mozilla-ps application/postscript 33 pswrite
  [After change]
   application/mozilla-ps application/postscript 33 pstops

- If you are using Fedora Core 5 or later, when SELinux is set to Enforcing 
  or Permissive, you cannot print with the default settings.  You can enable 
  printing by changing the settings as follows.
  1) Open System menu ->[Administration] ->[Security Level and Firewall].
  2) Select [SELinux]tab ->[Modify SELinux Policy] ->[Printing].
  3) Check the 4 check boxes under [Printing].
  4) Click [OK] to close the window.

- If you are using Fedora 7 or later, and if SELinux is set to Enforce, you need
  to install a policy package using the following method. (You do not need to 
  install a policy package if Permissive is specified.)
  <Preparation>
    1) Install the printer driver package, then specify the settings for the
       printer.
       * Please see the online manual about the install method and the setting
         method.
    2) Check if the checkpolicy package is installed.
         # rpm -qa | grep checkpolicy
       If the package name is not displayed, install the package using the
       following command.
         # yum install checkpolicy
    3) Set SELinux to Enforcing.
       1. From the menu bar, select [System] - [Administration] - [SELinux
          Management].
       2. In the dialog box, set [System Default Enforcing Mode] to [Enforcing],
          and then click [OK].
    4) Restart Linux.
  <Creating and installing a policy package>
    1) Set SELinux to Permissive.
         # /usr/sbin/setenforce 0
    2) Print to the object printer.
       Example: Printing the CUPS text document to LBPxxxx
         # lpr -P LBPxxxx /usr/share/cups/data/testprint.ps
    3) Create a policy package.
         # audit2allow -M cncapt -l -i /var/log/audit/audit.log
    4) Install the policy package.
         # /usr/sbin/semodule -i cncapt.pp
    5) Restart Linux.

- When performing banner printing in Fedora 8 or Fedora 9, if you specify a 
  setting other than [none] for [End] under [Banner] in the [General] sheet, 
  the print queue will stop.

- If you attempt to print from a Color iR printer using this driver in a Fedora 9
  64-bit system environment, printing results may not be satisfactory.
  This is because when the Fedora 9 64-bit packages are installed by the standard
  installation method, the 32-bit JPEG library is not installed.
  This problem can be solved by installing the package as an additional 
  installation.
  Execute the following command.
    # yum install libjpeg.i386

- To install the common module in the 64-bit version of Fedora 10 or Fedora 11,
  you need the 32-bit version glibc library.
  You can install the glibc library by executing the following command:
    # yum install glibc.i386

  Also, printer drivers from version 1.90 onward require the the 32-bit version
  of the xml2 library.
  You can enable printing by executing the following command:
    # yum install libxml2.i386

- If you are using Fedora 10, specifying [Pretty Print] in the text file printing
  options of the [Filter] sheet does not affect the print result.

- If you are using Fedora 11 and print with the print queue stopped after
  canceling a job, the job is suspended. In this case, click the [Maintenance]
  button in Printers in the CUPSWeb interface and select [Resume Printer] to
  perform the [pending since] job again.
  If you cannot find the [Maintenance] button, you can select [Resume Printer]
  by selecting [Pause Printer].

- If you are using OpenSUSE 10.2 or SLED10SP1, which includes Ghostscript
  version 8.15.3, you may not be able to print some documents. To solve this
  problem, install another version of Ghostscript.

- If you are using OpenSUSE 11.0 with Ghostscript version 8.6.x, printing from 
  Evince, GIMP, or other applications may take time.

- Although Okular is the standard document viewer in the OpenSUSE 11.1 KDE 
  environment, the printer driver functions do not operate correctly with it.
  You can solve this problem by using another application such as Acrobat
  Reader etc.

- If you are using Ubuntu 7.04/7.10/8.04/8.10/9.04 or Debian 3.1/4.0/5.0, 
  the libcupsys2 library is required to install the common module.
  You can install the libcupsys2 library by executing the following command.
    # apt-get install libcupsys2

- If you are using Ubuntu 8.10 or Ubuntu 9.04, the printer will print with 
  the default paper output method, regardless of whether you have specified 
  the paper output method. 
  This problem can be solved by changing the output paper method setting from
  the CUPS printer settings (Web).

- If you are using Ubuntu 8.10, specifying reverse order for printing does not 
  affect the print result.
  This problem can be solved by updating CUPS.

- If you are using Ubuntu 8.10 or Ubuntu 9.04, when printing PDF data or PS data,
  brightness and   gamma correction settings do not affect the print result.

- If you are using Adobe Reader 7.0.x, and modify such settings as Paper Size, 
  Paper Source, Duplex Printing, etc. in the print dialog window, these options 
  are automatically added to the printer command. However, these settings will 
  not work because they cannot be recognized as command options. To solve this 
  problem, use "-o" to separate each command options.
     [before]  -o InputSlot=Manual,Duplex=DuplexNotumble 
     [after]   -o InputSlot=Manual -o Duplex=DuplexNoTumble

- When printing PDF files using Adobe Reader 8, there may be instances where 
  some image data is not printed.
  This problem may be solved by printing using Adobe Reader 7 or setting Level 3
  in the PostScript options.

- When performing 2-sided printing with Adobe Reader 8.1.2, if you specify 
  [ON (Short-edged Binding)] for [Duplex Printing] in the print properties for 
  Adobe Reader 8.1.2, the document will be printed on both sides with long-edged 
  binding.
  This problem can be avoided by printing the document using the cngplp command 
  from the command line.

- If you are using Vine Linux 3.1, you may take time to print from Adobe Reader 
  7.0.9 or may not be able to print some documents.

- When printing PDF files containing Japanese characters from the command line 
  in Vine Linux 4.1, there may be instances where Ghostscript terminates 
  unexpectedly, causing printing to stop.
  This problem can be avoided by printing PDF files using Adobe Reader.

- When printing PDF files from Adobe Reader 8 in Vine Linux 4.1, there may be 
  instances where Ghostscript terminates unexpectedly, causing the print queue 
  to stop.
  This is caused by Ghostscript (7.07) not being able to analyze PS files 
  created by Adobe Reader 8, and consequently terminating prematurely, thereby 
  stopping the filtering process.
  This problem can be avoided by using Adobe Reader 7.

- When printing text files in landscape orientation in Vine Linux 4.1, Vine Linux
  4.2, Fedora 8, Fedora 9, or Red Hat Enterprise Linux v.5, there may be instances
  where the text file is printed in portrait orientation with some of the print 
  data not being printed on the page.
  This is caused by the CUPS filter employed by the distribution you are using 
  creating a PS command that is already set to portrait. 
  Also, some of the functions provided in the CUPS standard filter "texttops" 
  may not operate correctly.
  This problem can be avoided by changing the CUPS filter name specified in 
  the "text/plain" entry line in the CUPS setting file "mime.convs" to the CUPS
  standard filter "texttops". This will result in Japanese characters being 
  misprinted, therefore when printing Japanese characters, it is necessary to 
  print a PS command created with a text editor or text/PostScript conversion 
  program such as paps.

- If you are using Vine Linux 4.2, the [Filter] - [Text file options] settings 
  in the [Filter] sheet may not be applied in the resulting printout.
  Also, some of the functions provided in the CUPS standard filter "texttops" 
  may not operate correctly.
  This problem can be avoided by changing the CUPS filter name specified in 
  the "text/plain" entry line in the CUPS setting file "mime.convs" to the CUPS

  misprinted, therefore when printing Japanese characters, it is necessary to 
  print a PS command created with a text editor or text/PostScript conversion 
  program such as paps.

- If you specify Paper Source settings in the print dialog of an application 
  such as Writer of OpenOffice.org, the settings made from the application are 
  overridden by the printer driver UI settings. To print from the desired 
  Paper Source, specify the Paper Source from the printer driver UI beforehand, 
  or print from the command line.

- If you are using Debian GNU/Linux 4.0, a PPD file error may occur when you 
  register the printer (PPD) with the print spooler. To solve this problem, 
  use "-P (full path to the ppd)" instead of "-m" when you specify the ppd 
  using the command line.
    Example: /usr/sbin/lpadmin -p iRC5180
              -P /usr/share/cups/model/CNCUPSIRC5180ZK.ppd
              -v lpd://192.168.1.10/iRC5180 -E

- If you are using Debian GNU/Linux 4.0, you may take time to print from Evince
  or may not be able to print some documents. To solve this problem, print the 
  document from other application.

- If you are using Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 r6, and attempt to print a text file 
  using the cngplp command when EUC-JP is set as the locale, printing will fail.
  This problem can be solved by printing a PS command created with a text editor
  or text/Postscript conversion program such as paps.

- If you are using Debian GNU/Linux 5.0.2, the gs-esp module is required to
  install the common module.
  You can install the gs-esp module by executing the following command.
    # apt-get install gs-esp

- Depending on the distribution you are using, when you register the USB printer 
  with the print spooler specifying /dev/usb/lp* as [Device URI], printing may 
  fail with an error "Printer not Connected" displayed. To solve this problem, 
  specify the printer specific name as [Device URI] that is displayed by using 
  the following command.
    Example) When you use MF4600 Series
    1) Display the [Device URI]
      # /usr/sbin/lpinfo -v
      direct usb://Canon/MF4600%20Series%20(FAX)
      direct usb://Canon/MF4600%20Series%20(PCL5e)
      direct usb://Canon/MF4600%20Series%20(PCL6)
      direct usb://Canon/MF4600%20Series%20(UFRII%20LT)
    2) Register the printer
      #lpadmin -p MF4600_USB -m CNCUPSMF4600ZK.ppd 
                  -v usb://Canon/MF4600%20Series%20(UFRII%20LT) -E

- When printing PDF files from Adobe Reader in Mandriva, regardless of the 
  version being used, there may be instances where Ghostscript terminates 
  unexpectedly, causing the print queue to stop.
  This is caused by Ghostscript (8.60) not being able to analyze PS commands 
  created using PS files for which security settings have been specified, and 
  consequently terminating prematurely, thereby stopping the filtering process.
  This problem can be avoided by not printing PDF files that have security 
  settings using Adobe Reader.

- If you are using Mandriva One 2008 Spring or Mandriva 2008 PowerPack with CUPS
  version 1.3.6, unintended print results may occur even when printing with 
  standard CUPS print functions.
  This problem can be solved by updating CUPS.

- If your version of Ghostscript is 8.6.x, you may not be able to print some
  documents.

- There may be instances where MF4270, or L90/L160/L230 printers, depending on 
  the environment and type of print data, cannot print due to a printer data 
  error at the device end.
  This is caused by a time out error occurring at the device end.
  This problem can be avoided by turning the error time out setting off at the 
  device.

- If the Finisher Q3 or Saddle Finisher Q4 is attached and you specify A4, 
  Letter, or Legal as the page size, the document is not printed correctly when
  you attempt to print with [Binding Location] set to [Short Edge (Top)] and 
  [Staple Position] set to [Top (Double)], or [Binding Location] set to 
  [Short Edge (Bottom)] and [Staple Position] set to [Bottom (Double)], in 
  the [Finishing] sheet.

- If you are using the iR C1021/C1021i, MF8400 Series, MF9100 Series, or 
  MF9300 Series, although IPv6 can be set from the control panel of the printer,
  only IPv4 supports network connections.

- If you are using CentOS 5.3, you cannot print the number of copies as you 
  specified in Evince.
  You can solve this problem by printing from other PDF viewers such as 
  Adobe Reader or using the following methods.
  1) Set the number of copies to 1 and select a PS command for the output 
     destination in Evince to output a file.
  2) Print the PS command output as a file after specifying the number of 
     copies in cngplp.

- If you are using Ubuntu 9.04 and update the CUPS version to 
  "1.3.9-17ubuntu3.2", printing will fail due to improper PS data.
  You can avoid this problem by downgrading the CUPS version to 
  "1.3.9-17ubuntu3.1".
  <Downgrading with the apt-get command>
    - Execute the following command.
        # apt-get install cups=1.3.9-17ubuntu3.1
  <Downloading the CUPS1.3.9-17ubuntu3.1 package and downgrading with the dpkg
  command>
    - Download the package (cups_1.3.9-17ubuntu3.1_i386.deb) from the Ubuntu 
      website (http://packages.ubuntu.com/en/jaunty/i386/cups/download) using
      a Web browser etc., and then execute the following command.
        # dpkg -i cups_1.3.9-17ubuntu3.1_i386.deb

- If you are using Ubuntu 9.04 or Fedora 11 and print banner pages, the 
  specified number of banner pages are printed.
