Capacities” on page 40.

Auto Eject Page Specifies whether or not to eject paper when the limit specified in the I/F Time Out
setting is reached. The default is Off, which means paper is not ejected when the time-out
limit is reached.

Size Ignore If you want to ignore a paper size error, select On. When you turn this item on, the printer
keeps printing even if the image size exceeds the printable area for the specified paper
size. This may cause smudges because of the toner that is not transferred onto the paper
properly. When this item is turned off, the printer stops printing if a paper size error occurs.
Settings (default in bold):
Off, On
Auto Cont When you turn this setting on, the printer automatically continues printing after a certain
period of time when one of the following errors occurs: Set Paper, Print Overrun, or
Memory Overflow. When this option is off, you must press the OK button to resume
printing.
Settings (default in bold):
Off, On
Page Protect Allocates additional printer memory for printing data, as opposed to receiving it. You may
need to turn this setting on if you are printing a very complex page. If a Print Overrun
error message appears on the LCD panel (AL-M320DN/AL-M310DN), or on the computer
screen while printing, turn this setting on and reprint your data. This reduces the amount
of memory reserved for processing data so your computer may take longer to send the
print job, but it will allow you to print complex jobs. Page Protect usually works best
when Auto is selected.
Note:
❏ Changing the Page Protect setting reconfigures the printer’s memory, which
causes any downloaded fonts to be deleted.
❏ This function is available only for ESCP2, FX, or I239X mode.
Settings (default in bold):
Auto, On
