Understanding the operator panel
Help Menu
Use the Help Menu to find additional information available about your printer.
PS
SmartSwitch
To configure the printer so it
automatically switches to
PostScript emulation when a print
job received through the USB port
requires it, regardless of the
default printer language.
On* Printer examines data on the USB
interface and selects
PostScript emulation if the data
indicates that is the required
printer language.
Off Printer does not examine the
incoming data. The printer uses
PCL emulation to process the job if
PCL SmartSwitch is On, or uses
the default printer language
specified in the Setup Menu if PCL
SmartSwitch is Off.
USB Buffer
To configure the size of the USB
input buffer.
Note: Changing the USB Buffer
menu item automatically resets the
printer.
Disabled Job buffering is disabled. Any jobs
already buffered on the disk are
printed before normal processing
of incoming jobs resumes.
Auto* Printer automatically calculates the
USB Buffer size (recommended
setting).
3K to
maximum size
allowed
User specifies the USB Buffer size.
The maximum size depends on the
amount of memory in your printer,
the size of the other link buffers,
and whether Resource Save is set
to On or Off. To maximize the
range for the USB Buffer size,
disable or reduce the size of the
parallel, serial, and network
buffers.
