Settings | Options |
|
|
I/F mode | Auto, Parallel, Serial, USB, Optional |
You may need to change the I/F mode so that |
|
your printer and computer can communicate |
|
properly. |
|
Auto: printer automatically selects the |
|
interface that is receiving data, and uses that |
|
interface until the end of the print job. Allows |
|
you to share the printer among multiple |
|
computers without changing the interface |
|
mode. |
|
Check your computer documentation if you |
|
are not sure of the type of interface your |
|
computer requires. |
|
|
|
Auto I/F wait time | 10 seconds, 30 seconds |
When Auto is selected as the I/F mode |
|
option, you can set the interface timeout to |
|
10 seconds or 30 seconds. The printer does |
|
not accept data from another interface unless |
|
it receives no data from the current interface |
|
for the period set in Auto I/F wait time. |
|
|
|
Network I/F mode | Off, On |
If your printer is connected to a single |
|
computer, leave this feature off. If you want |
|
to share the printer with another computer, |
|
turn this feature on. When this feature is on, |
|
data may be present in the printer’s buffer |
|
even though the printer is not printing. Always |
|
make sure the printer isn’t receiving data |
|
before turning off the printer. |
|
|
|
Parallel I/F transfer rate | Fast, Normal |
Specifies the interface transfer rate. For most |
|
printing, leave this setting set to Fast. If you |
|
encounter problems, set it to Normal. |
