Using printer menus
Print Timeout Specifies the amount of time (in
seconds) the printer waits before printing
the last page of a print job that does not
end with a command to print the page.
The print timeout counter does not start
until Waiting is displayed.
Disabled The printer does not print the last page of a
print job until one of the following occurs:
• The printer receives enough information
to fill the page.
• The printer receives a Form Feed
command.
• You select Print Buffer from the Job
Menu.
1...255 (90*) The printer prints the last page after the
specified time. (Your printer may not
support the entire range of values.)
Wait Timeout To specify the amount of time (in
seconds) the printer waits to receive
additional bytes of data from the
computer. When this timeout expires,
the print job is canceled.
Wait Timeout is only available when you
use PostScript emulation. This menu
item has no effect on PCL emulation
print jobs.
Disabled Disables Wait Timeout
15...65535 (40*) Specifies the amount of time the printer
waits for additional data before it cancels
the job
Auto Continue Defines the amount of time (in seconds)
the printer waits after displaying an
operator intervention error message
before it resumes printing
Disabled* Printer does not resume printing until
someone clears the error message.
5...255 Printer waits the specified amount of time,
and then automatically resumes printing.
This timeout value also applies if the
menus are displayed (and the printer is
offline) for the specified period of time.
Jam Recovery Specifies whether the printer reprints
jammed pages
On Printer reprints jammed pages.
Off Printer does not reprint jammed pages.
Auto* Printer reprints a jammed page unless the
memory required to hold the page is
needed for other printer tasks.
Page Protect Successfully prints a page that may
otherwise generate Complex Page
errors.
If, after selecting On, you still cannot
print the page, you may also have to
reduce the size and number of fonts on
the page, or increase the installed
printer memory.
For most print jobs, you do not need to
select On. When On is selected, printing
may be slower.
Off* Prints a partial page of data if memory is
insufficient to process the entire page
On Ensures that an entire page is processed
before it prints
