NONE: Turns off stapling.

ONE: Turns on stapling.

NOTE

Selecting the stapler at the printer control panel changes the default setting to staple. It is possible that all print jobs will be stapled.

For information about selecting the stapler at the printer control panel, see Stapling documents.

Determines how the printer behaves if the stapler runs out of staples, as indicated by the REPLACE STAPLE CARTRIDGE message on the printer control-panel display.

STOP: The printer stops printing until you refill the stapler.

CONTINUE: The stapler accepts print jobs if it is out of staples, but the pages are not stapled.

For information about ordering a new staple cartridge, see Part numbers. For information about refilling the stapler, see Loading staples.

Items on the I/O (input/output) menu affect the communication between the printer and the computer. The contents of the I/O submenu depend on which EIO card is installed.

The section that follows lists the settings and possible values. In the Values column, the default value for each setting is the one with an asterisk (*) next to it.

FUNCTIONS

Explanation

Select the I/O timeout period in seconds.

Use this setting to adjust timeout for the best performance. If data from other ports appear in the middle of your print job, increase the timeout value.

Configure the parallel features.

HIGH SPEED: Select YES to enable the printer to accept the faster parallel communications that are used for connections with newer computers.

ADVANCED FUNCTIONS: Turn the bidirectional parallel communication on or off. The default is set for a bidirectional parallel port (IEEE-1284).

The function allows the printer to send status readback messages to the computer. (Turning the parallel advanced functions on might slow language switching.)
