IPDS Printer and Host Setup Guide Printer Messages and Problems PSF/2 TCP/IP Settings: Connect Timeout Tuning Option: Job Interval Shutdown Timer PSF/AIX SMIT Printer Def: Connect Timeout 0 9999 0 Problem 2: IPDS memory exception Sometimes an IPDS memory exception is reported to the host. Solution to Problem 2 You need to do one or more of the following: A. Postscript or PCL resources may be saved in the printer memory. The memory cannot be used by IPDS. Set Resource Save to "Off" in the printer menu to allow permanent downloaded resources from PostScript and PCL jobs to be deleted. Try reprinting the job after powering the printer OFF and ON. B. There may be insufficient printer memory to print the IPDS job with print resolution selected in the printer's MENU/Menus > Option Card Menu > IPDS MENU > EMULATION >IPDS Print Res menu item. Select a lower print resolution and try reprinting the job. C. There may be insufficient printer memory to temporarily store IPDS resources and print non-IPDS jobs. Add more memory to the printer. Requirements vary greatly according to type of printing and types of resources being used. For information on the minimum recommended installed memory for various printing requirements on each supported printer, refer to the appendix on memory requirements and recommendations in the IPDS Emulation User's Guide. D. The host may be downloading more IPDS resources than can be held in the printer's memory. Add more memory to the printer. Requirements vary greatly according to type of printing and types of resources being used. For information on the minimum recommended installed memory for various printing requirements on each supported printer, refer to the appendix on memory requirements and recommendations in the IPDS Emulation User's Guide. Problem 3: Large or complex PostScript or PCL jobs do not print after installing IPDS emulation Before installing the IPDS emulation, my PostScript and PCL jobs printed correctly. Now some large PostScript and PCL jobs do not print. Solution to Problem 3 A. If you have set host and printer settings to temporarily store IPDS resources when printing non-IPDS jobs, change these settings to allow the host to delete the IPDS resources before printing non-IPDS jobs. Refer to IPDS Timeout in the IPDS Emulation User's Guide for more information on setting printer values and see the appropriate host installation section in this guide to change the host timeout value. B. Add more memory to the printer. This will allow IPDS resources to be temporarily stored and more complex non-IPDS jobs to print. Requirements vary greatly according to type of printing and types of resources being used. For information on the minimum recommended installed memory for various printing requirements on each supported printer, refer to the appendix on memory requirements and recommendations in the IPDS Emulation User's Guide. 38
