A.13 Notes and Restrictions 359
• Configure the size of the [LPD Spool] which represents the size of receivable buffer in
accordance with the printer's operating conditions. Receiving cannot be performed if the
size of the [LPD Spool] receivable buffer is smaller than the actual received data.
Configuring Settings
• Take care to configure IP address settings correctly. IP addresses are maintained within
an entire system. Be sure to consult your network administrator before configuring IP
address settings.
• Consult your NIS (Network Information Service) administrator whenever configuring
network settings (e.g., IP address) on a computer that is used under NIS (Network
Information Service).
Switching the Power Off
Note the following points whenever switching the printer power off.
• When the [LPD Spool] setting is [Memory]
All of the print data spooled in the printer, including data that is currently being printed, is
deleted. The print data is not available when the power is switched back on. However,
print data may be saved on your computer if the power is switched off immediately after
requesting a print job. In this case printing will be performed from the saved print data
when the power is switched back on again, even if a new print job is requested.
• When the [LPD Spool] setting is [HDD Extension Kit (optional)]
All of the print data spooled in the printer, including data that is currently being printed, is
saved on the printer's HDD Extension Kit (optional). Printing will be performed from the
saved print data when the power is switched back on again, even if a new print job is
requested.
• When the [LPD Spool] setting is [Off]
All of the print data spooled in the printer's receiving buffer, including data that is currently
being printed, is deleted. The print data is not available when the power is switched back
on. However, print data may be saved on your computer if the power is switched off
immediately after requesting a print job. In this case printing will be performed from the
saved print data when the power is switched back on again, even if a new print job is
requested.
Printing
• When the [LPD Spool] setting is [HDD Extension Kit (optional)] or [Memory]
If the size of the print data is greater than the remaining capacity of HDD Extension Kit
(optional) or memory capacity at the time that receiving the print data starts, that print data
cannot be received.
Note
• Some computers may resend the print data immediately automatically if the size of the
print data exceeds the receiving capacity. If this happens, it may appear as if the
computer has hung up. To avoid this, cancel sending print data on the computer.
• When the [LPD Spool] setting is [No Spooling]
While a print request is being received from one computer, a print request from another
computer cannot be received.
• When the computer’s IP address or and computer name has been changed
The query contact processing or canceling requests from the computer and the delete
process may not operate correctly after the computer’s IP address and/or the computer
name has been changed. While there is no print data in the printer's receiving buffer, turn
the power off and then back on again.
