Connection

Before powering on your parallel host system, the printer cable from the system must be plugged into the PC parallel connector on the printer.

Select a time out configuration (either short or long) to match your system's needs.

note

1)The printer will feed a blank page when data host inputs are switched.

2)When switching host inputs, the printer

configuration is not preserved by the printer's memory. Should any of your PC or network jobs change the printer configuration, it may be necessary for you to reset the printer configuration.
