To enable bidirectional communication, you must set up the printer in Command WorkStation and activate JDF communication. No settings are required at the printer.

JDF communication enables Command WorkStation to send and receive status messages from the printer. You also require JDF to transmit information about the current job status back to print MIS devices.

The printer must have an appropriate software version installed. The following minimum printer software versions are required:
