Using MFP menus
Standard USB or USB <x>
These menus are only shown if a USB port is available. Use these menu items to change printer settings affecting a
Universal Serial Bus (USB) port (USB <x>). x represents 1 or 2.
Network Buffer Configures the size of the network
input buffer.
Note: Changing the Network Buffer
menu item automatically resets the
MFP. Any permanent resources,
such as fonts or macros, are lost.
Auto* The MFP automatically calculates the
Network Buffer size (recommended
setting).
3KB to maximum
size allowed
(1KB increments) The user specifies the Network Buffer
size. The maximum size depends on
the amount of memory in the MFP, the
size of the other link buffers, and
whether Resource Save is set to On or
Off. To maximize the range for the
Network Buffer size, disable or reduce
the size of the parallel, serial, and USB
buffers.
Mac Binary PS Configures the MFP to process
Macintosh binary PostScript print
jobs. On The MFP processes raw binary
PostScript print jobs from computers
using the Macintosh operating system.
Note: This setting often causes
Windows print jobs to fail.
Off The MFP filters PostScript print jobs
using the standard protocol.
Auto* The MFP processes print jobs from
computers using either Windows or
Macintosh operating systems.

PCL
SmartSwitch Configures the MFP so it
automatically switches to
PCL emulation when a print job
received through the USB port
requires it, regardless of the default
printer language. On* The MFP examines the data on the
USB port and selects PCL emulation if
the data indicates that is the required
printer language.
Off The MFP does not examine the
incoming data. The MFP uses
PostScript emulation to process the
job if PS SmartSwitch is On, or it uses
the default printer language specified
in the Setup Menu if PS SmartSwitch
is Off.
