timeout refers to the time, measured in
seconds, that the printer waits before ending a
print job.)
This setting allows you to adjust timeout for
best performance. If data from other ports
appear in the middle of your print job, increase
the timeout value.
Press [- Value +] once to change settings by
increments of 1, or hold down [- Value +] to
scroll by increments of 10.

AUTO : The printer automatically reserves
memory for I/O buffering. Additional
configurations are not required and the
I/
O BUFFER SIZE menu item does not appear.
ON : The I/O BUFFER SIZE item appears (see
below). Specify the amount of memory to be
used for I/O buffering.
OFF : I/O buffering is not performed and the I/
O BUFFER SIZE item does not appear.
When the I/O buffer setting is changed, any
downloaded resources (such as fonts or
macros) will need to be downloaded again,
unless they are stored on an optional hard disk
or flash DIMM.
