Enabled (default)—Establish one-way LocalTalk
communication (from the host to the printe r).
Disabled—Turn off the LocalTalk interface (the
printer stops accepting Loca lTalk interface
print jobs).
Notes: The printer must be restarted for changes to the Mode menu to
take effect. You can either let the printer restart automatically after you
save the change and exit the Configuration menu, or you can wait for the
change to take effect the next time you manually turn on the printer.

allocated to the LocalTalk interface.

Min K Spool
Choices
00000-99999
(00015 default)
Notes: This value must be less than the K Mem for Spool value.
A 00000 value does not turn off the spooling buffer for the parallel
interface. If the value is set to 00000, the printer calculates the Min K
Spool automatically at initialization.
The printer must be restarted for changes to the Min K Spool menu to take
effect. You can either let the printer restart automatically after you save the
change and exit from the Configuration menu, or you can wait for the
change to take effect the next time you manually turn on the printer.
