State Saving

Printer Generated Reports

When you are printing both PostScript and PCL jobs, the printer clears any downloaded fonts, macros, and PostScript headers when it switches between PostScript and PCL 5e Emulation. However, you can set the printer’s State Saving option to On, and the printer will save downloaded fonts, macros, and PostScript headers when it switches PDLs (Printer Description Language). This saves you from having to download fonts, macros, and headers every time the printer switches between PostScript and PCL 5e Emulation.

Using the printer’s Control Panel, you can print five separate reports.

The Demo Page provides a sample of the printer’s capabilities and lists the printer’s key features.

The Configuration Sheet lists the options you have installed and the current settings for each option in the Control Panel’s menu system.

The PCL Font List shows which PCL fonts are currently available. The list includes resident fonts and downloaded fonts.

When PostScript is installed on the LN17 printer, the PostScript Font List shows which PostScript fonts are currently available. The list includes both resident and downloaded fonts.

The Test Print is used by service and repair technicians if problems occur with the printer.

See Appendix D: Control Panel Options for more information about these reports.
