How
Your Printer Prints
When you print a document, the data for the document is
temporarily stored in the printer’s memory. The printer’s memory
contains data from the time it receives a print command until it
finishes the last page of the print job.
If the print mechanism is not moving during a print job, the printer
may be composing a page in memory. It may take a few minutes to
image a complex page or graphics before printing it.
If you don’t know whether a print job is complete, look at the
display. If the display reads
FF,
the print job is not finished and the
printer’s memory contains data.
If you want to stop a print job before it has finished and clear the
printer’s memory, cancel the print job using your application
program and then press RESET to reset the printer.
