	whether the printer should attempt to automatically reprint jammed pages. The options are:
	● AUTO — Printer will attempt to reprint jammed pages.
	● OFF — Printer will not attempt to reprint jammed pages.
	During the recovery process, the printer may reprint several good pages that were printed
NOTE
