CLR WARN

ON*

CLR WARN stands for “clearable warnings.” This setting determines how

 

JOB

long a clearable warning will be displayed on the printer control panel.

 

 

When set to ON, the warning is displayed until the [Go] key is pushed.

 

 

If set to JOB, the warning will be displayed until the end of the print job in

 

 

which it was generated.

 

 

 

AUTO CONT

OFF*

The auto continue function determines how the printer reacts to data and

 

ON

printer errors. When auto continue is set to OFF, the printer displays an

 

 

error message and goes off line until you press [Go].

 

 

When auto continue is set to ON, the printer displays a message and goes

 

 

off line for about 10 seconds, then comes back on line.

 

 

If your printer is part of a network or remote spooling system, set auto

 

 

continue to ON.

print while the message is displayed.

 

 

If TONER LOW is set to STOP, the printer will go off line and wait for further

 

 

action. See “Clearing the TONER LOW Message” in Chapter 8.
