66 Using ESC/P Emulation
Paper Eject Function
This section explains the paper eject function of the printer.
Forcibly Ejecting the Remaining Data
In the ESC/P 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].
