Control Panel Menus

basic printer configuration. Not all menu items are discussed in
this section. Only those items of specific interest from a service
standpoint, or items new to the printers are discussed in this
section. If options such as PostScript or a different I/O are
installed, new menu items automatically are added at the
appropriate location. For example, a PostScript Menu appears
following the PCL Menu.

Printer Features
Some of the important features of the HP LaserJet 4, 4 Plus, and
LaserJet 5 printers are described below.
Page Protection (HP LaserJet 4 only)
NoteThe default is 
PAGE PRO\fEC\f=OFF*.   Unless you
frequently get  2\b PRIN\f OVERRUN  messages, you
may not need to set a value for page protection.
Page protection reserves additional memory for the page image
process, allowing the printer to create an entire page image in
memory before paper starts through the printer. The memory

user switches the LaserJet 4 printer from PCL mode to
PostScript mode, all PCL soft fonts macros are lost. The HP
LaserJet 4 Plus/4M Plus printer would not clear these entities
from memory. When the user switches...
