Printer’s timeout
Note
This is the basic procedure for changing one of the printer’s
timeout values. For more information on the printer’s timeouts,
refer to the on-line manual on the printer’s CD-ROM.
You can use the CONFIG.PS file to change the PostScript and HP-GL job and
wait timeout values. When sent to the printer, your edited version of the
CONFIG.PS file changes the values in the printer, but only while the printer
is turned on; if the printer is turned off or reset the values return to their
defaults. To restore your desired timeout settings, you must send your
edited CONFIG.PS file to the printer again.
Note
The CONFIG.PS file affects printer operation. If the printer is
shared on a network, using this file may affect the prints requested
by other users.
1. Locate the utility files in the PHSR350 directory on the printer’s
CD-ROM.
2. Copy the CONFIG.PS file to your hard disk.
3. Open the file using a text editor. The default value is 40 seconds
for the wait timeout. Change the value in the WaitTimeOut line to
999.
4. Use one of the following methods to send the CONFIG.PS file to
the printer:
■ PC users: Use the DOS COPY command to send the file to the
printer. (Windows 3.1 users can also use the Copy command in the
File Manager.)
■ Workstation users: Send the file to the printer as you would any
PostScript file.
