This section explains how to print PDF files directly without having to open a PDF application by using DeskTopBinder. To use this function, you must first download DeskTopBinder from the manufacturer's Website and install it on your computer. Contact your local dealer for information on downloading DeskTopBinder.
This function is possible for genuine Adobe PDF files only.
PDF files whose PDF version is 1.7 (Acrobat 8.0 compatible) or earlier can be printed.
PDF files created using PDF version 1.5 Crypt Filter functions or more than eight DeviceN Color Space components cannot be printed.
PDF files created using PDF version 1.6 watermark note functions, or extended optional contents cannot be printed.
AcroForm is a function specific to PDF version 1.7 and is not supported.
Large PDF files might not be printable using the PDF direct print function.
If print jobs through PDF direct printing are being canceled, select [Font Priority] for [Memory Usage] in [System] in [Printer Features]. If print jobs are being canceled even though [Font Priority] has been selected, print using the printer driver from a PDF viewer such as Adobe Reader.
Paper size errors may occur when printing on custom size paper.
DeskTopBinder does not support 64-bit versions of Windows operating systems and Mac OS X.

Right-click the new icon that has been added to the task tray, and then click [Properties...].
