Table 3-5 Job Menu You can change Job Menu items through your software application if you have installed an appropriate printer driver. See Figure 3-2, item D for the location of the Job Menu on the Menu Map. Job Menu Items Item RESOLUTION Options 300 600* PERSONALTY PAGEPROTCT AUTO* PCL POSTSCRIPT (optional) AUTO* ON I/O TIMEOUT 15* (5 to 300) *Indicates factory default. Explanation At 600-dpi (dots per inch), the printer might need as much as four times more memory to format a page than it needs at 300-dpi. For most purposes, 600-dpi is recommended. It is recommended that you use 300-dpi for some bitmapped fonts and graphics designed to be printed at 300-dpi or for compatibility with the HP LaserJet 3 family of printers. The printer can be switched from its standard personality (language), PCL, to other personalities, such as PostScript. When PERSONALTY is set to AUTO, the printer analyzes each print job it receives and switches personalities automatically. This menu item will not be available unless a 21 PAGE TOO COMPLEX, PRESS GO KEY error occurs (see "Understanding Printer Messages" in Chapter 7). Memory Enhancement technology (MEt) attempts to guarantee that all pages will print. If the page does not print, turn PAGEPROTCT to ON. This may increase chances of a 20 INSUFFICIENT MEMORY, PRESS GO KEY message. If this occurs, you need to add memory. I/O timeout refers to the time, measured in seconds, that the printer waits before ending a print job. This setting allows you to adjust timeout for best performance. If data from other ports appear in the middle of your print job, increase the timeout value. Press [- Value +] once to change setting by increments of 1 or hold down to scroll by increments of 10. 3-10 Using the Printer Control Panel EN
