Description

Lets the printer successfully print a page that may not have printed otherwise

Notes:

Off is the factory default setting. Off prints a partial page when there is not enough memory to print the whole page.

On sets the printer to process the whole page so that the entire page prints.

Returns the printer settings to the factory default settings

Notes:

Do Not Restore is the factory default setting. Do Not Restore keeps the user-defined settings.

Restore Now returns all printer settings to the factory default settings except those in the USB and parallel menu. All downloads stored in RAM are deleted.

Description

Sets the default printer language

Notes:

PostScript emulation uses a PS interpreter for processing print jobs. PCL emulation uses a PCL interpreter for processing print jobs.

The factory default printer language is PCL Emulation.

Setting a printer language as the default does not prevent a software program from sending print jobs that use another printer language.

Sets the logical and physical printable area

Notes:

Normal is the factory default setting. When attempting to print data in the non-printable area defined by the Normal setting, the printer clips the image at the boundary.

The Whole Page setting allows the image to be moved into the non-printable area defined by the Normal setting, but the printer will clip the image at the Normal setting boundary.

The Whole Page setting affects only pages printed using a PCL 5e interpreter. This setting has no effect on pages printed using the PCL XL or PostScript interpreter.

Sets the storage location for downloads

Notes:

RAM is the factory default setting.

Storing downloads in RAM is temporary.
