CHAPTER 4 CONTROL PANEL
4–33
PAGE PROTECTION
✒
Note
The setting in this mode menu is effective in the HP PCL5C, EPSON FX-
850, IBM Proprinter XL and HP-GL modes. It does not appear in the BR-
Script 2 mode.
If print images are too complex to print, the printer may print them in
parts or only on part of the page. If this occurs, the printer loses print data
and shows a message on the LCD panel.
The page protection function reserves additional memory so that the
printer can create the entire page image in memory before physically
printing it. This function can be set for 330 x 483mm (13"x19"), Ledger,
letter, A3, A4 or legal size paper. Select the paper size for page
protection.

including permanent ones—are cleared. If the memory is too low to
protect pages, page protection does not take effect.
