1.3
Eject Function
This section explains the eject function. There are two types of eject functions as shown
here.
• The remaining data is forcibly ejected.
• All jobs in the printer are eliminated.
To Forcibly Eject Remaining Data
For ESC/P emulation mode, data is not ejected until a full page of data has accumulated.
When using a parallel interface, if operations stop while the data for the last page is being
transferred, this machine waits for the next data until the time set [Auto Eject Time] has
passed, and the “Waiting for data” appears in the display.
In this kind of situation, forced eject does not wait for automatic eject and just forces all of
the data in the printer to print out.
The operation procedure is shown below.
Note
• When “Waiting for data” appears in the display, the next job sent to the printer may not be printed
correctly. Send the next job after forced eject or after the automatic eject time has been exceeded.
Refer to
• Auto Eject Time: User Guide 4.2 Description of Menu Items
1.
Press the <Eject/Set> button when the
display shown to the right appears.
Printing will start.
When printing ends, the display changes to
“Ready to print”.
Important
• When the common menu item [Print Mode] is set to
[Auto], “Waiting for data” does not appear, so forced
eject does not occur.
