Function of Page Protection on HP III Printer Driver

• Microsoft Windows versions 3.1, 3.11
• Microsoft Windows for Workgroups versions 3.1, 3.11

SUMMARY

Although the Hewlett-Packard (HP) LaserJet III printer driver has a Page Protection option in the Setup dialog box, it does not actually change the HP printer configuration. This article explains how to change the Page Protection setting and why the printer driver includes the option.

MORE INFORMATION

Online help for Page Protection states that the "printer's hardware must be configured correctly." (To access online help, run Control Panel, choose Printers, select the Page Protection check box, and then press F1.) Since there are no software commands to set the Page Protection option on the HP LaserJet III series printers, you must change the Page Protection option using the control panel on the printer and then configure the printer driver.

Changing the printer driver setting allows Windows to subtract the amount of RAM used for the Page Protection feature from the total amount of RAM available on the printer. If this subtraction is not made, Windows may try to download too much information to the printer, causing an out-of-memory error.
