A driver that can put you on the fast track: the Konica Minolta Universal Printer Driver.

YOU’RE A BUSINESS MANAGER USING MULTIPLE MFPS WITH VARYING SPEEDS AND OUTPUT
CAPABILITIES – INCLUDING A MIX OF LEGACY AND STATE-OF-THE-ART EQUIPMENT. OR YOU’RE A
MOBILE PROFESSIONAL MOVING BETWEEN BRANCH OFFICES, LOOKING FOR THE RIGHT OUTPUT
DEVICE FOR YOUR REPORT. OR YOU’RE AN IT PROFESSIONAL WITH A GROWING WORKLOAD, TRYING
TO HANDLE MORE DEVICES IN LESS TIME.
KONICA MINOLTA HAS A POWERFUL NEW PRINT SOLUTION THAT CAN SERVE ALL THESE
SITUATIONS – AND SPEED PRINT PRODUCTIVITY AS IT REDUCES ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS.
Select, Set Up and Print: one Universal Printer Driver does it all.
A printer driver that gets you there faster.
Konica Minolta’s Universal Printer Driver eliminates
the need to access printer drivers on each device.
One common interface handles printer selection
throughout your network, automatically detecting
and identifying printers and MFPs. You can select
your printer by device type, color or monochrome
printing, 2-sided printing capability and 11” x 17”
printing – a capability that no other universal print
driver currently offers.
The Universal Printer Driver automatically loads the
correct print driver set for each model: Emperon ®
PCL/PS drivers for Konica Minolta devices using the
powerful Emperon Print system, and PCL6/PCL-XL
(2.1 or later) and PostScript (level 3) drivers for
compatible 3rd-party devices.
Universal Printer Driver: this example of
the bizhub C652 driver shows “MyTab”
print settings – the quick and easy
way for individuals to save and access
customized printer settings.
Making network printers even more powerful.
Leveraging the output speed and finishing power
of your bizhub ® MFPs as well as magicolor ® ,
pagepro ® and 3rd-party networked devices,
Konica Minolta’s Universal Printer Driver drives
the process with effortless ease. You’ll see detailed
information on each device – including name,
location, output speed, IP address, MAC address,
model number, color or monochrome capability,
and PDL (Printer Description Language) supported.
And when you’re ready to print, the latest
Konica Minolta devices give you another timesaving
feature to speed your output: the industry
award-winning convenience of MyTab printing,
allowing individuals to create a customized tab
that saves their preferred print settings for
quick access.

Multiple printer drivers in one simple solution.
The Universal Printer Driver combines multiple
print drivers to meet the needs of even complex
networks comprising new and legacy devices from
several manufacturers. Individual Child Drivers
connect to model-specific Konica Minolta
MFPs. Common Child Drivers connect to other
Konica Minolta models and 3rd-party devices.
Most recent Konica Minolta MFPs will enjoy full
print functionality. Older Konica Minolta devices
and 3rd-party printers will have basic functionality.
And all devices will benefit from automatic
detection and identification – an important
time-saving benefit that every IT professional
will appreciate.

Individual child drivers provide full functionality as “out of the box” drivers for recent Konica Minolta MFP models.
Common child drivers provide limited or basic functionality depending on the device detected.
Automatic detection of networked devices.
With a simple Network Search command, the
Universal Printer Driver detects and identifies all
the devices on your network.
You’ll see individual printers represented by icons
and text descriptions, with the key information
listed in your MIB – model name, output speed,
location and IP address. Advanced search settings
allow you to narrow your search for types of
printers, color capability, 2-sided or 11” x 17”
printing capabilities.
Network Search
Advanced Search
Print management was never so easy.
With a Universal Printer Driver to optimize the
speed and convenience of network printing, your
IT administrators, individual MFP and printer
users, even temporary employees can be more
productive – because finding, selecting and setting
up devices will be faster and simpler.
Your IT administrators will no longer have to install
drivers for each device added to your network.
There’s no need to test functions. Basic functions
can be performed without installing specified
drivers – and a common interface reduced the
need for operator familiarization or training.
You’ll also have the capability to display a history of
recently connected printers and MFPs, add and edit
information on each device, create printer icons for
quick identification.
The result? Speeding output, saving time, and
reducing administrative costs. To drive your
productivity, Konica Minolta’s Universal Printer
Driver can provide a big advantage.
