JOB (Tandem Print)
Two machines are required to use this function.

machine configured in "Tandem Connection Setting" of
the machine's system settings (administrator) must be
configured in the printer driver. This can be accomplished
automatically by clicking the [Auto Configuration] button
on the [Configuration] tab of the printer driver.
