14.3 On Using TCP/IP (LPD)

When LPD Spool is set to Off (non-spool mode)

All the print data spooled to the printer receive buffer, including print data which is being output, will be deleted. When the printer is switched on again, the print data will not be found.

However, if the power is switched off immediately after the print data has been sent, the data may be stored in the PC. In this case, when the power is switched on again, the stored print data will be printed first even if new print data has been specified.

14.3.3During Printing

Take note of the following when printing:

When LPD Spool is set to Hard Disk or Memory (spool mode)

If the print data is larger than the hard disk or the remaining memory capacity at the point of receiving data, the data will not be received by the printer.

Some client computers may re-send immediately when the print data has exceeded the receiving capacity. When this occurs, the client computer appears as if it has crashed. To rectify this situation, the client computer must be stopped from sending print data.

When LPD Spool is set to Off (non-spool mode)

The printer will process print data as soon as data is being received. If the printer has accepted a print request from a client computer, it will not receive another print request from another client computer.

When the IP address or computer name is changed

When the IP address or computer name of a PC/workstation is changed, it may not be able to process enquiries or deletion requests from the printer correctly. Make sure the printer is free of all spooled data and then switch off/on the printer.

The function to stop/eject print data spooled to the printer spool can be setup from the control panel. Refer to "3.3 Cancelling Printing from Printer" and "3.4 Forced Out- putting" for information on the setup method.
