Is the
Data In
indicator
blinking or lit after start-
ing the print job?
If the
Data In
indicator stays off, data is not being sent to
the printer or the printer may be resetting the print job be-
cause there was a long delay in receiving the data from
the computer.

If the printer is using "I/O Timeout"
Increase the value of the "I/O Timeout" setting of the
"IPDL-C Menu" or "RPS2 Menu". Or set the "I/O Tim-
eout" value to "0" (this is the off setting).
