If the print job is sent to the printer with the Buffered/Deferred option, this indicates
to the printer to wait until it has a full buffer before printing. A full buffer is 26.5 to
33 inches. A print job sent with this option is printed when:

the buffer is full

the next print job received will not fit within the full buffer length

the next print job received is requested to be printed unbuffered/immediate
(the job received this way is printed by itself)

the buffer is forced to be printed (see “Printing Deferred or Buffered Jobs” on
the next page)

the buffer is full and the next print job has started downloading to the printer

NOTE: If your host application needs to wait until a print job has been completely

downloaded to the printer before it can begin processing the next print job,
this option should not be used with larger width paper. It will slow down the
productivity of your system.

Printing Deferred or Buffered Jobs

“Pages Deferred” displays on the OCP and a number other than zero displays in
the Pages Waiting field when one or more jobs are waiting to be printed.
