Paper Eject Function
The section explains the paper eject function of the printer.
Forcibly Ejecting the Remaining Data
In the PCL emulation mode, the printer does not eject a job unless it receives a full page
worth of data. When the host interface is Parallel or USB, and if only a portion of a page is
received, the printer does not eject the page. The printer waits for the data and shows [Data
Wait] on the display until the time set under [Time-out] elapses.
In such situation, you can forcibly print the page without waiting for the time-out period to
elapse.
Use the following steps when forcibly ejecting the data remained in the printer.
Note
• If you send a job to the printer while the display says [Data Wait], the job may not be printed successfully.
Send a job to the printer after forcibly ejecting the current job or after the time-out period has elapsed.
Refer to
• For information about the [Time-out] feature, refer to the 'User Guide'.
