Brother HL-1260 Protect=Auto, Protect=Letter, PROTECT=A4, Protect=Legal, Protect=Off

USER’S GUIDE

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.

CARD OPERATION

✒Notes

∙BE SURE TO TURN OFF THE PRINTER POWER SWITCH BEFORE INSTALLING OR REMOVING THE FLASH MEMORY CARD OR HDD CARD, OR THE CARD WILL BE DAMAGED.

∙The settings in this mode menu are effective only when you have installed a flash memory card or a HDD card in the card slot of the printer and you have selected the HP LaserJet 4+, HP-GL, or BR-Script 2 mode. They do not appear when the printer has no card or is in any other emulation mode.
