5.2 Common Menus Setting 185
Receiving
Buffer
- Sets the memory of the receiving buffer (temporary storage location
for data arriving from the computer) for each interface. Set the
spooling setting, allocation location, and size of memory for each of
the LPD, SMB and IPP interfaces.
The receiving buffer size can be changed according to operating
status and purpose. Increasing the receiving buffer size sometimes
frees up the computer supporting a particular interface more quickly.
The maximum size that can be set changes according to the amount
of free memory.
Note
• When a port is disabled, its corresponding items are not displayed.
• Even if the receiving buffer size is increased, the time required to
free up a computer sometimes does not change depending on the
size of data arriving from the computer.
Parallel,
NetWare, IPP,
USB and Port
9100
Specify memory size from 64 to 1024 KB in 32 KB increments. The
default memory size is [64K] for parallel, USB memory. Otherwise, it is
[256K].
Note
• [IPP] appears when the HDD Extension Kit (optional) is not
installed. [IPP Spool] is displayed when the HDD Extension Kit
(optional) is installed.
• [Parallel] appears only when the Parallel Port Kit (optional) is
installed.
EtherTalk
Compat
Specify memory size from 1024 to 2048 KB in 32 KB increments. The
default is [1024K].
LPD Spool,
SMB Spool
•[Off] (default)
Spooling is not performed. Data cannot be simultaneously printed
and received using the LPD or SMB interfaces.
When printing on the LPD interface, set the memory size of the
receiving buffer exclusively for LPD from 1024 to 2048 KB in 32 KB
increments. The default is [1024K].
When printing on the SMB interface, set the memory size of the
receiving buffer exclusively for SMB from 64 to 1024 KB in 32 KB
increments. The default is [256K].
• [Hard Disk]
Spooling to HDD Extension Kit (optional) is performed. The HDD
Extension Kit (optional) is used as the receiving buffer for spooling.
This item appears only when HDD Extension Kit (optional) is
installed.
• [Memory]
Spooling to memory is performed. Memory is used as the receiving
buffer for spooling. When this optional value is selected, set the
memory size of the receiving buffer for spooling from 0.5 to
32.00 MB in 0.25 MB increments. The default is [1.00M]. Note that
print data exceeding the preset memory size cannot be received to
memory. In this case, select [HDD Extension Kit (optional)] or [No
Spooling].
Important
• When the LPR byte count is disabled and a document larger than the
size set as the spooling memory is received, the job is repeatedly
transmitted. If this happens, either open the [Ports] tab in the print
driver Properties dialog box, and enable the LPR byte count, or
change the size of spooling memory so that it is larger than the size of
the document.
IPP Spool •[Off] (default)
Spooling is not performed. Data cannot be simultaneously printed
and received using the IPP interface. Set the memory size of the
receiving buffer exclusively for IPP from 64 to 1024 KB in 32 KB
increments. The default is [256K].
• [Hard Disk]
Spooling to HDD Extension Kit (optional) is performed. The HDD
Extension Kit (optional) is used as the receiving buffer for spooling.
Note
• [IPP Spool] appears only when HDD Extension Kit (optional) is
installed. [IPP] is displayed when HDD Extension Kit (optional) is not
installed.
