䕺 Clear Buffer and Reset

The printer has high capacity storage (buffer) to store the data from the host computer.

Sometimes it is required to halt the printing to clear a fault. Resuming the printing at this point

may cause erratic printouts because some of the un-processed data in the buffer may be

truncated. Therefore, it is recommended clearing the buffer after the recovery with following

procedures: (Turning off the printer is an alternative)

1) Terminate the print job in the host.

2) Press the

OnlineɌkey to bring the printer off-line. The printing will stop, but un-processed

data still resides in the buffer.

3) Holdɋ

OnlineɌand ɋLoad/EjectɌkeys simultaneously. The buffer will be cleared and the

printer will automatically warm boot.

4) Probably you need to repeat step 2-3 times as the print job in the host spooler may be very

large.
