PCL Menu
Use the PCL Menu to define the way the printer handles PCL5e jobs. The following
table describes the settings you can change from the PCL Menu. An asterisk (*) next
to a value in the table indicates the factory default.
Notes:
1. To select a new value, press the Continue/Enter key when the value is displayed
in the message display area. An asterisk (*) appears next to the value in the
message display area, indicating that it is now active.
2. Values set in PCL5e print jobs (either by the print application or the printer driver)
override PCL Menu values you set at the printer.
3. If you are unfamiliar with using the operator panel to work with menus, please read
“Using the Operator Panel Keys” on page 10 and “Navigating Menus” on page 12
before continuing.
PCL MENU ITEM VALUE Description
PAGEPROT AUTO*
ON Sets page protection:
AUTO—the printer uses the minimum amount of memory
necessary to print a page.
ON—the printer reserves enough memory to process an
entire page without compression before it prints the page.
This can help in the rare case where the printer compression
scheme causes a loss of quality in complex graphics. This
setting is available only when the printer has enough
memory. See “Memory Requirements” on page 3 for more
information.
COPIES nnn Specifies how many copies of each job to print. nnn can be from
1 to 999. 1 is the default.
