Job Accounting
Purpose:
To store statistical information about your most recent print jobs on the hard disk. The statistics include
whether the job printed with or without errors, the print time, the job size (in bytes), the requested
paper size and paper type, the total number of printed pages, and the number of copies requested.
Va l u e s :

nor Read/Write or Write protected.

Job Acct Limit
Purpose:
To specify the number of print jobs for which statistics are maintained on your printer hard disk.
Va l u e s :
If you set Job Acct Limit to 10, the statistics from the 10 most recent print jobs are stored on the hard
disk. When the limit is reached, statistics for the oldest print job are discarded and replaced with the
statistics from the current print job. If you change the Job Accounting Limit, all job statistics currently
stored on the hard disk are deleted.
Note:Job Acct Limit is only displayed when a hard disk is installed, is neither defective
nor Read/Write or Write protected, and Job Accounting is set to On.

Page Protect
Purpose:
To successfully print a page that may otherwise generateComplex Pageerrors.
Va l u e s :
If, after selecting On, you still cannot print the page, you may also have to reduce the size and number
of fonts on the page, or increase the installed printer memory.
For most print jobs, you do not need to select On. When On is selected, printing may be slower.
Power Saver
Purpose:
To specify the amount of time (in minutes) the printer waits after a job is printed before it goes into a
reduced power state.
Va l u e s :
The factory default Power Saver setting depends on your printer model and engine speed. Print the
menu settings page to determine the current Power Saver setting. When the printer is in Power Saver
mode, it is still ready to receive print jobs.
Select 1 to put the printer in Power Saver mode one minute after it finishes a print job. This uses much
less energy, but requires more warm-up time for the printer. Select 1 if your printer shares an electrical
circuit with room lighting and you notice lights flickering.
Select a high value if your printer is in constant use. Under most circumstances, this keeps the printer
ready to print with minimum warm-up time. Select a value between 1 and 240 minutes if you want a
balance between energy consumption and a shorter warm-up period.
If the Disabled value is not available from the Power Saver menu item, seeDisabling Power Saver
for more information.
Off*Prints a partial page of data if memory is insufficient to process the entire page.
OnEnsures that an entire page is processed before it prints.
DisabledDisables Power Saver; the fuser remains warm and ready to print at all times.
1...240Specifies the amount of time after a print job before the printer goes into Power Saver
mode. (Your printer may not support the entire range of values.)
