When this feature is on, the printer determines which interface receives data and then switches to that interface until the end of the print job (when no data is received from the selected interface for the amount of time specified by the Auto interface wait time). Usually, you should set this feature to on.

When this feature is set to off, the printer receives data only from the interface specified by the DIP switch on the optional interface card.

Auto interface wait time

This feature is necessary when the auto interface selection is set to on. If the data from the computer is not sent within the specified period, the printer re-determines the source of any new data. Otherwise, the printer receives data only from the currently selected interface and ignores data from the other interface. You can set the time to either 10 seconds or 30 seconds.

Tear of7

You can set this feature on to select tear-off mode. See “Using the tear-off feature” in Chapter 2 for information on tear-off mode. Use the tear-off feature only with continuous paper.

Do not use the tear-off feature with labels.
