In the operation panel screen, it is difficult to tell whether Adobe PS or Clone PS is in use.

Both “PS3” and “PDF” are shown on the screen, regardless of whether Adobe PS or Clone PS is used.

Identification can be done as follows:

  • Configuration Page

    The description of the Firmware Version listed on the page varies as shown below:

    PS typeDescription of Firmware Version
    Adobe PSRPCS [x.xx.xx] Adobe PostScript 3 [x.xx], Adobe PDF [x.xx]
    Clone PSRPCS [x.xx.xx] PS3 [x.xx], PDF [x.xx]

    The manufacturers name “Adobe” is shown in the list if Adobe PS is used.

  • PS Configuration / Font Page

    The “Adobe” logo is printed on the page if Adobe PS is used.

  • Web Image Monitor

    Go to Status/Information > Device Info, and open the Printer Language menu.

     If Adobe PS is used, the screen shows the program name “Adobe PostScript 3” and "Adobe PDF".
