Chapter 3: Installing the Software Wait timeout-This setting defines the time that the printer waits between blocks of data coming from the computer before it considers the job complete and processes what is in the print buffer. The Wait timeout can be any time between 1 and 255 seconds. The Wait timeout default is 200 seconds (40 seconds for DOS jobs). For most text applications this is adequate. If you plan on generating very complex pages, you may want to increase the Wait timeout. Manual Feed/Duplex timeout-This setting is used to determine the length of time the printer will wait for paper to be manually fed before pulling paper from the tray or cassette. It may be set to OFF to tell the printer to wait indefinitely. The default setting is 255 seconds and should be left on if the printer is connected to a network. Energy Saving Checking Enable Energy Saving allows your printer to reduce power consumption to a minimum during inactive periods. It will set your printer to power down after a specified time of inactivity. This will save energy when you are not using your printer. To "wake" the printer up, press the Operator panel button, press "resume" in the maximized status monitor, or send a print job to the printer. You can adjust the setting for the number of minutes before the printer powers down by entering any number between 1 and 255 in the minutes field. The default setting is 30 minutes. 58

set to OFF to tell the printer to wait indefinitely.
The default setting is 255 seconds and should be
