Activate the transaction printing mode

When the transaction printing mode is active, the data stream enters the printer via a separate IPDS or PCL port. Meanwhile, all submitted document print jobs come in the list of waiting jobs. The printer begins to process these jobs, after you leave the transaction printing mode and return to the document printing mode.
