Sharp printer keeps rendering

[cfragassi]

The printer keeps rendering when printing. I have to do a 66-10 reset to get it back printing. Im using pcl drivers.

More info.
Make and model number of the machine.
What have you tried to repair the fault.

Sharp mx 264. Updated firmware.

What are the jobs it is struggling to render? What application is sending the jobs, are the PDF, Docx ect.. What kind of network setup, what driver version are you running? What are the size of the jobs?

Have you tried, re installing the drivers/updating? Using different applications? (EG adobe could be corrupting the job ect.)

Take the machine off the network, print to it via crossover cable? Data could be getting help up on the network.

If you're using Adobe AcroCrap reader, try Foxit instead.

I agree with trying printing with crossover cable. Had one recently that had same issue and was slow data transfer over network, but it is easier to blame copier than network. Also might want to see if sim 67-17, printer reset, has any affect. Sim 66-10 is for fax and image send clearing.

Ok Thanks. Heading back here today.

Try changing the tcp/ip port to lpr and portname lp

In the print driver, under the Advanced Tab, select “raster” from the drop-down list. This allows the printer to print the file without decrypting the vector graphics.

In some cases, the following settings have resolved this condition. Disable mDNS under Network Settings > Services Settings. Disable Tandem Receive and WSD under Security Settings > Port Control.

This has fixed a couple of machines that have had the rendering problem where theyre network was not the problem. It always seems to be a pdf or a webpage that causes it.

Good Luck!
