This section explains how to install the printer driver and the PC-Fax driver when the machine is connected to a
Windows network (TCP/IP network).

• The printer expansion kit and PS3 expansion kit are required to use the PS printer driver or the PPD driver.
• The printer expansion kit is required to use the PCL printer driver.
• Depending on the models, the printer expansion kit and the PS3 expansion kit are installed as standard.
• To print to the machine over the Internet using the IPP function when the machine is installed in a remote location, or to
print using the SSL (encrypted communication) function, see "Printing using the IPP function and the SSL function" (page
17) and install the printer driver or the PC-Fax driver. (Depending on the models, this function may not be available.)
