Setting Multi Station Print
Multi Station Print is the function to enable printing from any of the registered MFPs when a job is sent from a client
computer, by adding multiple MFPs as a cooperative device in advance. Up to 10 MFPs can be registered.
Operating with only one equipment unit is possible if the purpose is to use the output setting change function when
printing. You can connect up to 10 MFPs in a group and connect up to 5 groups including a group to which this MFP
belongs: you can add 4 groups for the connection.
