Item | Values | Explanation |
PARALLEL HIGH | YES |
SPEED=YES | NO |
Select the speed at which data is transmitted to the printer.
YES: The printer accepts faster parallel communications used for connections with newer computers.
NO: The printer accepts slower parallel communications used for connections with older computers.
PARALLEL ADV | ON |
FUNCTIONS=ON | OFF |
Turn the bidirectional parallel communication on or off. The default is set for a bidirectional parallel port
This setting allows the printer to send status readback messages to the computer. (Turning on the parallel advanced functions might slow language switching.)
SERIALDTR/DSR
PACING=DTR/DSR XON/XOFF
Select the type of pacing used. Pacing, or “handshaking” allows the printer to tell the computer when to send information. The printer uses XON/XOFF and DTR/DSR signal protocols rather than ETX/ACK protocol.
DTR/DSR: Select this value if your computer requires hardware flow control (most personal computers do).
XON/XOFF: Select this value if your computer requires software flow control (a UNIX workstation, for example). The SERIAL
item appears (see below).
