The page protection function reserves additional memory so that the
printer can create the entire page image in memory before physically
printing it out. This function can be set for letter, A4, or legal size paper.
Select the paper size for page protection.

Notes
When you use the page protection function, note the following:
•
When you want to print at 600 dpi with the page protection function
on, be sure to expand the memory capacity to a minimum of 6 Mbytes;
or the resolution is automatically reduced to 300 dpi for printouts.
•
If the function setting is changed, all download fonts and macros—
including permanent ones—are cleared. If the memory is too low to
protect pages, page protection does not take effect.
