Since the machine stores all data first before printing, the host computer is freed up more quickly. ƒ The supported print protocols are IPP and LPR. ƒ The default setting for this feature is “off”. The user must switch it on using UP mode to enable this feature. ƒ The size of the HDD partition for job spooling is 1 GB. ƒ The partition can hold up to 150 jobs.
