Serial Buffer

Disabled
Auto
3K to <maximum size allowed>

Sets the size of the serial input buffer

Notes:

•

Auto is the factory default setting.

•

The Disabled setting turns off job buffering. Any jobs already buffered on the
disk are printed before normal processing is resumed.

•

The serial buffer size setting can be changed in 1

‑K increments.

•

The maximum size allowed depends on the amount of memory in the printer,
the size of the other link buffers, and whether Resource Save is set to On or
Off.

•

To increase the maximum size range for the Serial Buffer, disable or reduce
the size of the parallel, USB, and network buffers.

•

Changing this setting from the printer control panel and then exiting the
menus causes the printer to restart. The menu selection is updated.
