Job Spooling

The printer saves data that you want to reprint.
You can reprint a document without sending the data again from your PC. To reprint press and hold down
the Go button until all four LEDs are lit and then release the Go button.

Quick Print Setup

You can turn the Quick Print Setup function ON or OFF. A small selection window appears on your
computer. This will then let you make changes to the settings of the following functions:

Multiple Page

Duplex Printing

Toner Save Mode

Paper Source

Media Type

Sleep Time

When the printer does not receive data for a certain period of time (timeout), it enters sleep mode. Sleep
mode acts as though the printer was turned off. The default timeout is 5 minutes. When Intelligent Sleep
Mode
is selected, it is automatically adjusted to the most suitable time-out setting depending on the
frequency of your printer use. While the printer is in sleep mode, all the LEDs are off, but the printer can
still receive data from the computer. Receiving a print file or document automatically wakes up the printer
to start printing. Pressing one of the buttons will also wake up the printer.

Sleep mode can be turned off. To turn sleep mode off, go to the Advanced tab, select Device Options
and then select Sleep Time. Double click the word Sleep Time in the Sleep Time screen, this will allow
the Sleep Time Off function to appear, click Sleep Time Off to stop the printer going into sleep mode.
The Sleep Time Off function can be hidden by double clicking the word Sleep Time in the Sleep Time
screen again. We recommend that you keep Sleep mode on for power saving.

Status Monitor

This reports the printer status (any errors that may happen with the printer) when printing. The default
setting for the Status Monitor is off. If you would like to turn the status monitor on, go the Advanced tab,
select Device options and then select Status monitor.

Macro (For HL-5140, HL-5150D and HL-5170DN)

You can save a page of a document as a macro to the printer memory. Moreover, you can execute the
saved macro - in other words, you can use the saved macro as an overlay on any document. This will
save time and increase printing speed for often used information such as forms, company logos, letter
head formats or invoices.

If you want to prevent other people from printing your data using the Reprint function, clear the Use
Reprint
check box in the job spooling settings.
