Setup menu

Printer Language

• PCL Emulation
• PS Emulation

Set the printer language.

Notes:

• PCL Emulation is the factory default setting.
• Setting a printer language as the default does not prevent a software program from sending print jobs that use another printer language.

Job Waiting

• On
• Off

Specify that print jobs be removed from the print queue if they require unavailable printer options or custom settings.

Print jobs removed from the print queue are stored in a separate print queue, so other jobs print normally. When the missing information or options are obtained, the stored jobs print.

Notes:

• Off is the factory default setting.
• This menu setting appears only when a formatted, working printer hard disk is installed. This requirement ensures that stored jobs are not deleted if the printer loses power.

Print Area

• Normal
• Whole Page

Set the logical and physical printable area.

Notes:

• Normal is the factory default setting. When attempting to print data in the non‑printable area defined by the Normal setting, the printer clips the image at the boundary.
• Whole Page allows the image to be moved into the non‑printable area defined by the Normal setting, but the printer will clip the image at the Normal setting boundary. This affects only pages printed using a PCL  5e interpreter. This has no effect on pages printed using the PCL  XL or PostScript interpreter.

Download Target

• RAM
• Flash
• Disk

Set the storage location for downloads.

Notes:

• RAM is the factory default setting. Storing downloads in the RAM is temporary.
• Storing downloads in flash memory or on a printer hard disk places them in permanent storage. Downloads remain in flash memory or on the printer hard disk even when the printer is turned off.
• This menu setting appears only when a formatted, working flash drive or printer hard disk is installed.

Resource Save

• On
• Off

Specify how the printer handles temporary downloads, such as fonts and macros stored in the RAM, when the printer receives a job that requires more memory than is available.

Notes:

• Off is the factory default setting. This sets the printer to retain the downloads only until memory is needed. Downloads are deleted in order to process print jobs.
• On retains the downloads during language changes and printer resets. If the printer runs out of memory, then Memory Full [38] appears, and downloads are not deleted.

Print All Order

• Alphabetical
• Oldest First
• Newest First

Specify the order in which held and confidential jobs are printed when Print All is selected.

Note:  Alphabetical is the factory default setting. Print jobs always appear in alphabetical order on the printer control panel.
