Understanding the operator panel
Page Protect
To successfully print a page that may
otherwise generate Complex Page
errors.
If, after selecting On, you still cannot
print the page, you may also have to
reduce the size and number of fonts on
the page, or increase the installed
printer memory.
For most print jobs, you do not need to
select On. When On is selected,
printing may be slower.
Off* Prints a partial page of data if memory
is insufficient to process the entire
page.
On Ensures that an entire page is
processed before it prints.
Print Area
To modify the logical and physical
printable area.
Normal* Note: The Whole Page setting only
affects pages printed using PCL 5
interpreter. This setting has no effect
on pages printed using the PCL XL or
PostScript interpreters. If you try to
print any data in the non-printable area
defined by Normal Print Area, the
printer will clip the image at the
boundary defined by the Normal
defined printable area.

Power Saver
To specify the amount of time (in
minutes) the printer waits after a job is
printed before it goes into a reduced
power state.
Disabled This value does not appear unless
Energy Conserve is set to Off.
1...240 Specifies the amount of time after a
print job before the printer goes into
Power Saver mode. (Your printer may
not support the entire range of values.)
The factory default Power Saver
setting depends on your printer model.
Print the menu settings page to
determine the current Power Saver
setting. When the printer is in Power
Saver mode, it is still ready to receive
print jobs.
Select 1 to put the printer in Power
Saver mode one minute after it finishes
a print job. This uses much less
energy, but requires more warm-up
time for the printer. Select 1 if your
printer shares an electrical circuit with
room lighting and you notice lights
flickering.
Select a high value if your printer is in
constant use. Under most
circumstances, this keeps the printer
ready to print with minimum warm-up
time. Select a value between 1 and
240 minutes if you want a balance
between energy consumption and a
shorter warm-up period.
