print data in the units memory is printed (interrupt copying). When this is done, the 
print data remaining in the computer is not sent to the unit. When the copy job ends, 
press the clear ( ) key twice, or press the ONLINE key once to change the unit to 
the online state (p.53), or wait until the set auto clear time (p.22) elapses. The 
remaining print data will be sent to the unit and printing will resume.

continue. After copying is complete, printing will be executed when the 
clear ( ) key is pressed twice, the ONLINE key is pressed to switch 
the unit to the online state or approximately 60 seconds (auto clear 
time)* elapse.
*  The auto clear time varies with a user program setting. See USER 
PROGRAMS (p.23).

printing is started.
If the paper size specified from the software application is larger than 
the paper size in the printer, part of the image that is not transferred to 
the paper may remain on the surface of the drum. In this case, the 
backside of the paper may become dirty. If this occurs, change to the 
correct size paper and print two or three pages to clean the image.
If you start a print job while a scan job is in progress, the print data will 
be stored in the units memory. When the scan job is completed, 
printing will begin.
