ERROR TIME OUT |
When a document is printed on the computer, the machine detects the control commands and starts printing in the appropriate mode. After all the data has been received and the end of the data is detected, the print mode stops. This processing of print data is called a job. If the data for a job does not end, the machine does not start the next job even if it receives other print commands. In cases like this, use the Timeout setting to force jobs to finish if no data is received during the set period of time. If Timeout is enabled, jobs can finish automatically. For example, if print data still remains in the machine because a form feed command cannot be processed, the paper can be fed automatically. If <ERROR TIME OUT> set to <OFF>, jobs will not end automatically. The default setting is <ON> and 15 seconds. |
