The Stylus Pro 7400/7800 and the Stylus Pro 9400/9800 are compatible with the two
types of MIB described in the tables below. This allows you to see the printer
information (spec, status, consumables) obtained from the MIB on a computer via a
network. The Local MIB is used when the printer is in Type-B Level 3 Packet Mode.

1.4.8 Function to Prevent Irregular Printing
 Forced cancel of print job
When the printer receives 16KB DC1 at the beginning of each job, it performs a
special initialization operation.
Refer to “1.4.9 Initialization” (p.137) for more details.
 Skip reading of irregular data
 Unprintable characters
Characters including ASCII code in text print mode.
Note : 0Ah, 0Ch, 0Dh, 11h, and 1Bh are ESCP command supported by the printer. The printer
judges the command at the same time and decides whether to print it.
 Job time out
Refer to “1.4.4.11 Time Out” (p.68).
 Preventing the remaining data from being printed on the second cut sheet
If the print data size is larger than the maximum data size that can be printed
on a single sheet (manual feed), the remaining data that cannot be printed on
the first sheet is not printed on the second sheet.
The remaining print data (graphic data) is ignored, and the next new print data
is printed from the top of the second paper.
