button to be touched before it prints the next page
automatically.
2 Resource Protect mode
Protects downloaded resource data such as fonts and

resource information will be protected as well.

You can select to have the error state released and
printing continue after a designated recovery time (Auto
Continue) in cases when either of the following messages
is displayed.
“Memory overflow”
“Print overrun”
The length of the recovery time can be changed as well.
4 Finishing Error
If the error detection setting for duplex (staple) printing has
been turned “On”, and you attempt to print onto a paper
size and paper type that cannot be used for duplex
(staple) printing, the error message will be displayed and
printing will stop. To print onto one-side (no staple) of the
paper only when the error message is displayed, press
the “GO” key. The default setting is “Off”.

Remarks
If the printer doesn’t receive a “end-
of-data” command from the computer
even after receiving the last portion
of data for that job, the last page will
not be printed and will be saved
temporarily. Once the pre-determined
amount of wait time passes, that data
will be automatically printed. If,
however, you select “0” for this
setting, the data will NOT be printed
out automatically.
