PAGE PROTECTION
If print images are too complex to print, the printer may print them
out in parts or only on part of the page. If this occurs, the printer loses
print data and shows the following message:
31 PRINT OVERRUN
The page protection function reserves additional memory so that the
printer can create the entire page image in memory before physically
printing it out. This function can be set for letter, A4, or legal size
paper. Select the paper size for page protection.
Display Message Page Protection
PROTECT=AUTO Page protection on only when it is
necessary. (Factory setting)
PROTECT=LETTER Page protection on for letter size paper.
PROTECT=A4 Page protection on for A4 size paper.
PROTECT=LEGAL Page protection on for legal size paper.
PROTECT=OFF Page protection off
To protect pages, you need the memory capacity as shown in the
following table:
Protection 300 dpi 600 dpi
Off 2 Mbytes 2 Mbytes
Letter or A4 2 Mbytes 6 Mbytes
Legal 3 Mbytes 6 Mbytes
(Duplex) 4 Mbytes 10 Mbytes
✒ Notes
When you use the page protection function, note the following:
• When you want to print at 600 dpi with the page protection
function on, be sure to expand the memory capacity to a minimum
of 6 Mbytes; or the resolution is automatically reduced to 300 dpi
for printouts.
• If the function setting is changed, all download fonts and macros—
including permanent ones—are cleared. If the memory is too low to
protect pages, page protection does not take effect.
