Auto Elevator

This parameter exists only on printers with the power paper stacker installed.
The power stacker has a sensor which detects paper movement and raises
the stacker as the printed paper stack grows. If the printer has been printing
for three minutes continually and the sensor has not detected any growth in
the paper stack, the stacker raises itself 1/4 inch automatically.

Enable

(factory default). The automatic elevator on the power stacker

operates normally.

Disable

. The stacker does not raise automatically every three minutes

and is entirely dependent on the sensor. Disable is used with extremely
high-quality print jobs that take a long time to print.

Auto Locking

Disable

(factory default). The ENTER key must be locked manually.

Enable

. The printer automatically locks the ENTER key five minutes after

the last front panel key press.

Main File System

The Main File System refers to the flash resident on the P8000 controller.

Overwrite Files

by disabling the overwrite function.

the ENTER key to go into the submenu. Then press the UP or DOWN
keys to view the different file names and size.

Delete Files

the LEFT or RIGHT keys to select the desired file to delete. Pressing the

Flash Avail

download files into the main file system.

Flash Reclaimable

Copy To SD

. If the SD card is inserted, the section will allow the user to

copy selected files from the main file system to the SD card (root
directory).

Optimize&Reboot

. Reclaims flash space from deleted flash files within

the main file system. After pressing ENTER, wait for the printer to reboot.

NOTE:

When the Optimize&Reboot option is executed, the message,
“Optimizing Flash Files” does not display before printer rebooting
takes place.

and several statistics on Main File System usage.

Do not turn the printer off until it has completely rebooted and is either
back online or offline.
