Use

To

 

 

 

 

Printer Language

Set the default printer language.

 

PCL Emulation

Notes:

 

PS Emulation

 

PCL Emulation is the factory default printer language.

 

 

 

 

Setting a printer language as the default does not prevent a

 

 

software program from sending print jobs that use another

 

 

printer language.

 

 

 

 

Print Area

Set the logical and physical printable area.

 

Normal

Note: Normal is the factory default setting. When attempting to

 

Whole Page

print data in the nonprintable area defined by the Normal

 

 

setting, the printer clips the image at the boundary.

 

 

 

 

Resource Save

Specify how the printer handles temporary downloads, such as

 

On

fonts and macros stored in the RAM, when the printer receives a

 

Off

job that requires more memory than is available.

 

 

 

 

Notes:

 

 

Off is the factory default setting. This sets the printer to

 

 

retain the downloads only until memory is needed.

 

 

Downloads are deleted in order to process print jobs.

 

 

On retains the downloads during language changes and

 

 

printer resets. If the printer runs out of memory, then

 

 

Memory Full [38] appears, and downloads are not

 

 

deleted.
