Figure 3.25 PCL and PostScript Menu options that affect printing speed and memory usage

Option	Description
Jam Recovery	A paper jam may cause a page image being printed to become lost. When
PCL Menu (page 3-26)	Jam Recovery is On, the printer will automatically reprint the image of the
	jammed page, after the jam has been cleared.
PostScript Menu (page 3-35)
	Because the printer holds a page image in memory longer with Jam
	Recovery, if a low memory condition occurs there can be a slight
	performance impact and the printer may require more memory. If sufficient
	memory exists, Jam Recovery has no impact.
Resolution	The printer prints at 600 or 300 dpi. The factory setting is 600 dpi.
PCL Menu (page 3-27)	Your software application may be able to set Resolution and override the
PostScript Menu (page 3-35)	setting here. Whether a new Resolution is set by your application or on
	the Control Panel, the new Resolution becomes effective with the next
	print job or with a printer reset. Unless State Saving (page 3-28 for PCL,
	page 3-36 for PostScript, and page 3-68) is On, downloaded fonts and
	macros may be cleared from memory.
	The higher the resolution, the more memory required. See Figure 3.26
	(page 3-69)for memory requirements.
State Saving	When State Saving is Off, fonts and printer macros permanently
PCL Menu (page 3-28)	downloaded from your software application are cleared from memory
	when:
PostScript Menu (page 3-36)
	• The printer switches from one page description language (PDL) to
	another (such as from PostScript to PCL).
	• A memory reconfiguration takes place (such as for a new Page
	Protection or Resolution setting).
	When State Saving is On, the printer reserves memory to retain the
	downloaded fonts and macros. Thus, the fonts and macros do not have to
	be downloaded to memory again when switching PDLs or reconfiguring
	memory.
	You may set State Saving separately for the PCL and the PostScript
	environments.
	The printer requires 10 MB of memory to enable State Saving when
	PostScript is installed. If PostScript is not installed, State Saving may be
	enabled with 6 MB of memory.
