This setting is useful when the data for the current job has some error and prevents the machine from performing further printing. In this case, the machine will not receive other print commands because it performs printing in the chronological order; the first job received is printed first, then the second job received printed next, etc. If the Error Time Out setting is enabled, the current job will be discarded automatically in the specified period of time. For example, if <Error Time Out> is set to On and 20 sec, the data for the current job will be erased from the machine s memory 20 seconds after the machine starts processing the data. If <Error Time Out> is set to Off, the machine will not discard jobs automatically. IMPORTANT If a job that consists of a large amount of data is sent from a computer, the function may cause the machine to end a print job before the complete data is received. In this case, set a longer error time out period (in seconds). If <Off> is selected, you will not be able to make copies until print jobs that use the Staple mode are complete. Settings Menu 1-17
