54 Using PCL Emulation
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.
Reference: For information about the [Time-out] feature, refer to the ‘User Guide’.
1. Press the <OK/Eject> button when the
display is in the state shown on the right.
The printing starts.
When the printing is finished, the display
reads [Ready to print].
Important: When [Print Mode] (common menu) is set to [Auto], you cannot force-eject a
job since the display does not show [Data Wait].
