	Menu item	Description
	Parallel Buffer	Sets the size of the parallel input buffer
	Disabled	Notes:
	Auto
		• Auto is the factory default setting.
	3k to <maximum size allowed>
		• The Disabled setting turns off job buffering. Any jobs already buffered on the
		disk are printed before normal processing is resumed.
		• The parallel buffer size setting can be changed in 1k increments.
		• The maximum size allowed depends on the amount of memory in the printer,
		the size of the other link buffers, and whether Resource Save is set to On or
		Off.
		• To increase the maximum size range for the Parallel Buffer, disable or reduce
		the size of the USB, serial, and network buffers.

		menus causes the printer to restart. The menu selection is updated.
