Error during printing

11

If you try to print while other users are printing large amounts of data (e.g. many pages or color pages with 
high resolution), the printer is unable to accept your print job until the ongoing printing is finished. If the waiting 
time of your print job exceeds a certain limit, a time out situation occurs, which causes the error message. In 
such situations, execute the print job again after the other jobs are completed.
