Automatically Display Error Screens

If On, the panel automatically displays any existing printer-related message after the printer remains inactive on the

Menu. Any message that appears on the display gives the option of returning to the home screen without clearing it.

screen, any existing message will again appear after the printer remains inactive for a length of time equal to the Screen
Timeout setting.
