Setting auto continue on or off determines what the printer does when one of the following errors occurs:

Paper size error (PS)

If the printer is set for a size of paper different from the size loaded in the paper tray, a paper size error occurs. The display reads PS and the printer goes off line.

When auto continue is off:

•If the auto continue menu is set to off (50), you can press MANUAL FEED to recover from the paper size error. Your printer ejects the paper and goes off line. Then you can change the paper to the same size as the SelecType setting. Press ON LINE to print on the correct size of paper.

•If you want to continue printing on the original, off-size paper, just press ON LINE. Your printer will print on that paper; however, some data may be lost if the paper size is narrower than the SelecType size setting.
