NOTICE PAGE PRINTING
A notice page will be printed when the current print job cannot be run due to a system limitation and an explanation
of the limitation is too lengthy to be shown in the message display. A notice page will describe the limitation and other
possible ways instead of possibilities to run the job.
Printing of the notice page is initially disabled in the key operator programs (see PROHIBIT NOTICE PAGE
PRINTING on page 5-5
). 
A notice page will be printed in the following cases.

When the print data of a single job is so large that it cannot be held in memory. (When there are other jobs
occupying memory, notice pages may tend to be printed more frequently even for jobs with small amounts of
data.)

When different paper sizes have been selected for printing within a print job and one or more of the sizes cannot
be delivered to the selected exit tray or to the stapler compiler. In these cases printed paper will be delivered
partly to the specified destination (tray or compiler) and partly to another exit tray.

When a function is selected that has been disabled using the key operator programs, such as disabling of two-
sided printing, disabling of the staple function, or disabling of a specified exit tray.

An invalid account number is entered when the auditing mode has been set.
