# EXTENSION OF PRINTABLE FILES

## Overview

When you do not have the printer driver installed on your PC, or when the application used to open a file that you wish to print is not available, you can print directly with the machine without using the printer driver.
The file types (and corresponding extensions) that can be printed directly are shown below.

File Type | TIFF | JPEG | PCL | PDF/Encrypted PDF/High Compression PDF | PS | XPS
Extension | tiff, tif | jpeg, jpg, jpe, jfif | pcl, prn, txt | pdf | ps, prn | xps

To print XPS files, the XPS expansion kit is required.

- Even if the print result is black and white, the following types of print jobs will be counted as 4-colour (Y (Yellow), M (Magenta), C (Cyan), and Bk (Black)) print jobs. When you want such jobs to be counted as black and white jobs, select the black and white printing option.
  - When the data is created as colour data
  - When the application treats the data as colour data even though the data is black and white
  - When an image is hidden under a black and white image
- Depending on the file type, it may not be possible to print some files in the above table.
