I/O Buffering

To allow the computer to continue working without waiting for the print job to
finish queuing, the printer uses a portion of its memory (an I/O buffer) to hold
jobs in progress. (If I/O buffering is off, no memory is reserved for this
function.)

In most cases, it is best to let the printer automatically reserve memory for I/O
buffering.

To speed network printing, you might want to increase the amount of memory
reserved for I/O buffering.

To change the I/O Buffer setting:

1. From the I/O Menu, set

I/O BUFFER=ON

(page

302

).

2. Also from the I/O Menu, set

I/O SIZE

to the desired value.

Note

When you change the I/O Buffer setting, all 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.
