General Settings

This section explains the items on the [General Settings] tab under [Basic Configuration].

If Menu Protect is enabled, you must enter the password for printer settings to configure these settings.

Resolution

You can specify the printing resolution. This setting is effective only if you are using PostScript, PCLXL, PCL5e, or printing a PDF document.

The default setting is 600 dpi.

Wait Timeout (Non-PS)

You can specify how long the printer waits for data. A timeout will occur when the time you specify here elapses.

If you specify "0", the printer will wait indefinitely.

The default setting is 300 second(s).

LPD Job Reception Timing

You can specify how the printer receives and processes jobs transmitted by LPD.

If you select [After Receiving Previous Job], the printer accepts reception requests for subsequent jobs only when it has finished receiving any earlier jobs.

If you select [Always], the printer accepts reception requests for subsequent jobs while it is still receiving earlier jobs.

If you select [After Printing Previous Job], the printer accepts reception requests for subsequent jobs only when it has finished both receiving and printing any earlier jobs.

The default setting is After Receiving Previous Job.

Meth. for Switching between 1&2 Sided Feed

You can specify how the printer processes jobs that contain both one-sided and two-sided pages. If you select [Speed Priority], the printer automatically inserts a blank sheet when it detects a one-sided page. This reduces the printing time required for jobs that contain both one- and two-sided pages.

The default setting is Job Settings Priority.

Auto Print Check Sample

This function delivers a sample print to the proof tray each time a specified number of copies is reached during a print run. The sample print allows you to check for consistent quality during long print runs. You can specify a number between 0 and 5000 in steps of 500. A sample print will be output each time the number of copies you specify here is printed.

If you specify "0", no sample print will be output.

The default setting is 0.

The counter is cleared when you change this setting.

Rotate by 180 Degrees

You can have the printer automatically rotate the print image 180 degrees relative to the paper orientation. This setting is effective only when you are using PostScript, PCLXL, PCL5e, or printing a PDF document.

The default setting is Inactive.

Face Up

If you select this function, printed sheets will be output printed side facing up. This setting is effective only when you are using PostScript, PCLXL, PCL5e, or printing a PDF document.

The default setting is Inactive.

Reverse Order Printing

Use this function to print the document in the reverse order of the original (the last page of the document will be printed first).

The default setting is Inactive.

Job Separation

Use this function to divide print jobs into easily separable batches. This setting is effective only when you are using PostScript, PCLXL, PCL5e, or printing a PDF document.

The default setting is Inactive.

Auto Tray Switching: Tray Setting

You can specify whether or not to make every tray available as a source tray for the Auto Tray Switching function. This setting is effective only when you are using PostScript, PCLXL, PCL5e, or printing a PDF document.

The default setting is Active.
