Setting PostScript and HP-GL job and wait timeouts

Note:The HP-GL job timeout is the same as the PostScript job timeout.

The following timeouts can be set in the printer:

The wait timeout is the amount of time in seconds that the printer waits for data to come from the computer during a job. If the data stream pauses for longer than the specified number of seconds, a timeout error is generated and the job is canceled.
The job timeout is the amount of time any single job may be active before it must print.
- In PostScript mode, if the value is exceeded, a timeout error is generated.
- In HP-GL mode, if the timeout value is too small, an image may be split across two pages; if the value is too large, multiple-page prints may be combined on one page.
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.

Configure the printer's port to receive PostScript; see "Printing PostScript files" for instructions.
Copy the utility files from the Phaser 300X printer's CD-ROM.
Open the CONFIG.PS file in a text editor.
The default values for the printer are 0 seconds for the job timeout and 40 seconds for the wait timeout. A timeout value of 0 indicates no timeout; the printer waits indefinitely.
In the following example, the timeouts are set to their default values.
```
3 dict begin
   /Password	() def
   /JobTimeOut 0 def
   /WaitTimeOut 40 def
currentdict end setsystemparams
1 dict begin
   currentpagedevice /ManualFeedTimeout known
{  /ManualFeedTimeout 60 def  } if
currentdict end setpagedevice 
```
To change CONFIG.PS to specify different timeouts, substitute new values for 0 and 40 in the JobTimeOut and WaitTimeOut lines.
Permitted timeout values are as follows:
Note:To avoid timeouts or job cancellation on Windows multiple-page or multiple-copy print jobs, you may want to set the WaitTimeOut to a high value or to 0 (zero).
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.
