Menu item	Values
Printer Language	PCL Emulation
	PS 2 Emulation*
	The printer language defines how the computer communicates with the printer. Your computer
	uses printer languages, such as PCL emulation and PostScript Level 2 emulation, to send
	print data to the printer. Setting a printer language as the default does not prevent the
	software application from sending print jobs that use the other printer language.
Power Saver	Disabled
	1…120 (20*)
	The Power Saver menu item lets you reduce power usage when the printer is idle. The Power
	Saver setting determines the length of time (in minutes) the printer waits after a job is printed
	before it goes to a reduced power state.
	If you have selected a Power Saver value, the message Power Saver replaces the Ready
	message on the operator panel display when the printer is in a ready state (after the time
	specified by the Power Saver setting has elapsed). This is the printer default. Both messages
	indicate the printer is ready to receive jobs.
	If your printer is in constant use, select a high setting, such as 120. Under most circum-
	stances, this keeps the printer ready to print with minimum warm-up time. However, it also
	uses more energy.
	Setting Power Saver to 1 puts the printer in Power Saver mode one minute after it finishes
	printing each job. This uses much less energy, but requires more warm-up time for the printer.
	If your printer shares an electrical circuit with room lighting and you notice lights flickering, you
	may want to set Power Saver to 1.
	If you want a balance between energy consumption and a shorter warm-up period, select a
	Power Saver value between 1 and 120 minutes.
Resource Save	Off*
	On

The Resource Save setting determines what the printer does with resources downloaded to RAM if the printer receives a job that requires more memory than is available.

If Resource Save is On, the printer retains all permanent downloaded resources for all printer languages during language changes and printer resets. If the printer runs out of memory, the message Memory Full appears on the display.

If Resource Save is Off, the printer retains permanent downloaded resources only until memory is needed. Then it deletes those resources stored for the inactive printer language.

See page 66 for information about adding memory to your printer.
