Does the printer save printed documents?

Hello,

I own a Canon PIXMA TS3452 and I'm wondering if the printer saves all the jobs I've placed so far (regardless of whether I've copied or printed anything)? If so, how can I delete them?

Ps. I haven't connected the printer to my devices yet, I've just copied a few documents.

That would be a stupid thing if there was a giant hard drive for the price you paid for the printer.

Modern printers have a built-in print server and stores the documents for analysis to convert them into print data themselves. That’s what they usually do on a RAM disk. The “forget” then everything when the power is gone.

In addition, the memory is also very small, the next document or at least after a few more documents everything is overwritten.

But there are “high performance printers” who have a very “big” print server. I have such a device that can store about 100 pages. This is because, for example, 100 employees can send print jobs at the same time during the printer, which then works gradually. This is also particularly “practical” if the printer is not able to print because of a lack of paper and waits for refilling. More than approx. 100 pages simultaneously on the printer you can connect an external hard drive. This would then be able to store a lot of documents and they would also remain on this board for a very long time.

But with a “consumer printer” for €200, you can be happy if the enough memory has more than just a few pages to keep in its memory at the same time.

Without a dedicated print server, no.

Under Windows you can log your own prints locally at least in the “Print Service”, then you can count individually for this one PC.

Printers also have hard drives on which the last print jobs are stored.

That a printer can store orders, yes. Not the documents. I admit that the connection between the headline and the following text has irritated me somewhat.

What exactly are you now, the queue of orders or actual documents?

Then no.

So one of the normal usb dings cable runs that gets the orders from the operating system, there you have the queue in there and no there will be nothing.

But there are printers who have a cache.

that has already been negated twice, a protocol may be passed at which time has been printed.

then what can be stored for the min via the wlan, the documents themselves now cannot be stored, but that there were print jobs that can then be stored for the min.

The memory of a printer is not as large as it could store 10000de documents

If at all, the PC stores the print jobs that have not yet been completed.

No. Only one protocol will be implemented. It just says what was copied but not what

Sometimes.
