Set the spool threshold

Introduction

When the job memory is full the printer cannot receive new jobs, therefore it is necessary to partly empty the memory. Set the [Spool threshold] setting to define the spool capacity for your jobs.

You can choose one of following values:

  • [Low]

    Select this value when you have more small print jobs, and you want to allow a higher capacity.

  • [Normal]

    This is the default setting. Select this value when you have both small and large print jobs.

  • [High]

    Select this value when you have more large print jobs, and you want to reduce the risk of having to abort the file transfer due to a full job memory.

Procedure

  1. Open the [Preferences] - [System defaults] tab.
  2. Click [Edit] in the [Printer properties] section, or click on the [Spool threshold] setting.
  3. Select [Low], [Normal], or [High].

    Select [Low] when print productivity is an important factor.

  4. Click [Ok] to confirm, or [Cancel] to reject your entries.
