Timeouts

Notes

A value of 000 is the same as infinity (no timeout).

 

When selecting a baud rate of 2400 or below (Administration/

 

Communications/Serial/Baud Rate menu), increase the

 

emulation timeout value as follows:

 

Baud Rate

Emulation Timeout (seconds)

 

2400

10*

 

1200

20

 

600

40

 

300

80

 

*A baud rate of 2400 works with a 5-second emulation timeout

 

value, but there is no margin for delays between characters.

 

 

 

Setting an ESP Timeout

The ESP (Emulation Sensing Processor) timeout is the maximum number of seconds the printer uses to match an emulation before printing the job in the ESP default emulation (Administration/Emula- tions/ESP Default Emul menu).

Setting a Manual Feed Timeout

The manual feed timeout is the maximum number of seconds the printer waits for the next sheet of media to be placed in the manual feed tray. If the timeout occurs, the manual feed job is canceled. The multipurpose tray, when accessed by a PostScript emulation operator as bin 0, is the manual feed tray.
