This item appears only when SERIAL PACING=XON/XOFF. Select the method for generating XONs.

ON: The printer sends an XON when the printer is online and when sufficient buffer space is available. If the host does not receive data within approximately one second, the printer will transmit additional XONs at one second intervals until the host receives data.

OFF: The printer sends one XON when it can accept more data or when it is online. The printer does not send XONs every second while the printer is online and ready for more data.
