G IP-422/423's Capabilities
The Konica IP-422/423 (referred to as the print controller hereafter) is a print controller to serve as a printer or as a network scanner when used in combination with a Konica 7022/7130/7135 copier that may be connected to computers or to a network. This print controller receives files from computers or over the network and converts the image data (video data) into data that the copier can print. In addition the network controller on the system board lets the copier work as a network scanner, thus making it possible to send images scanned into the copier as an e-mail attachment, or to store those scanned images on the (field optional) hard disk for the print controller and import them into Adobe Acrobat or other TWAIN-compliant applications. This service handbook offers information on the system components, disassembly/reassembly procedures, updating firmware, service ports, troubleshooting, and factory default settings etc.

G Principle of Operation
The IP-422/423 includes 64 MB of RAM as standard so that it can rasterize image data for subsequent pages while it is sending the rasterized image date for the current page to the print engine. The memory can also be expanded to accommodate the processing of very complex print data. This system means that the print engine can comfortably process print jobs consisting of many pages without interruption, to achieve efficient and effective printing. The print controller system software runs on VxWorks from Wind River and is included in the standard Compact Flash memory. The scanned data is sent to computers via the standard Ethernet network interface. The transmission and reception of scanned data between the print controller and the print engine performed by the built-in engine interface (video interface). In addition, the serial interface provides access to the system in the print controller.

I Service Port
G Overview of the Service Port
The service port is a serial port for use in connecting from a PC to the print controller via an RS-232C serial cable to control the print controller using HyperTerminal, a terminal communications program. This print controller supports for input/output operations of HyperTerminal from when the printer system BIOS boots up, thus making it possible to control the progress in initialization and system test (POST: Power On Self Test) by BIOS, which, when an error occurs at the system boot time, assists you in determining where error conditions may exist. You can also use HyperTerminal to switch to the memory test functions of BIOS or to boot service DOS.

Service Port Operating Environment
The following is required to use the service port: · Computers running on Windows · HyperTerminal (terminal communications program)

Setting requirements
Bits/sec.: Data bit: Parity: Stop bit: Flow control: 9600 bits/sec.(fixed) 8 bits None 1 None
