Clear Remote Buffers
The remote print buffer is used to store any remote data that has been
downloaded to the printer using commands 28 and 29.
The Clear Remote Buffers option can be used to clear the buffer
when printing stops:
Select this setting...

Number Of Buffers
The remote buffer is 1024 bytes long and can be divided into 1, 2, 4, 8,
16, 32, 64 or 128 blocks by changing the setting of this option. For
example, if the buffer was divided into 8 blocks, each block would be
128 (1024 / 8) bytes long. The minimum value for the remote buffer
divisor is 1 in Single print mode, and 2 in Continuous print mode.
As data is downloaded, using commands 28 or 29, it is loaded into
each of these blocks, one command per block. Therefore, all the
commands must be smaller than the current size of each block.
For each print, the printer checks whether any data exists in the remote
buffer. If there is data, it is taken from the next occupied block and
loaded into the message for printing.

To do this...
Once printing stops, the buffer is cleared.
This does not affect the data that has already
been loaded into the message.
Any data in the remote buffer remains there
when printing stops. Therefore, if printing is
restarted, it continues with the data already
contained in the buffer.
