job if PCL SmartSwitch is On, or uses the default printer language specified in the Setup
Menu if PCL SmartSwitch is Off.
Off* Printer waits to receive data from the computer.
On Printer sends a continuous stream of XONs to the host computer to indicate that the serial
port is ready to receive more data.
