Stand-Alone PC
1 Set the end job mode from the printer's control panel.
2 Add the EOD command to your file.
» Note: If using steps 1 and 2 is not feasible in your stand-alone PC
environment, you can alternatively use a program that either
causes an emulation timeout or that inserts an EOD command
between each print job. See your QMS vendor for more
information on this type of program.
PC Print Server
1 Set the end job mode from the printer’s control panel.
2 Create a job separator to append an EOD command and
send it between each print job.
Other Print Queuing Systems
If you use a print queuing system other than a PC print server and
you experience what appears to be an EOD command problem, you
may need to use another procedure, such as a print utility, an initial-
ization sequence, or a header page to add an EOD command. See
your print queuing system documentation, your network administra-
tor, or your QMS vendor for more information.
Setting the End Job Mode via the Control Panel
Use the following procedure to set the end job mode from the printer’s
control panel for printers connected via the serial or parallel interface
to a stand-alone PC, a PC print server, or some other type of print
queuing system.
» Note:
If you print both serial and parallel protocol jobs, then you must
set the end job mode for each protocol.
Wait for the printer to go idle, and then press the control panel keys in
the order shown in the following instructions to access the End Job
Mode option. The printer responds by displaying a status message in
the message window.
