MAC Binary PS

Purpose:

To configure the printer to process Macintosh binary PostScript print jobs.

Values:

On

Printer processes raw binary PostScript print jobs from computers using the Macintosh

 

operating system.

 

Note: This setting often causes Windows print jobs to fail.

Off

Printer filters PostScript print jobs using standard protocol.

Auto*

Printer accepts print jobs from computers using either Windows or Macintosh operating

 

systems.

NPA Mode

Purpose:

To specify whether the printer performs the special processing required for bidirectional communication, following the conventions defined in the Network Printing Alliance (NPA) Protocol.

Values:

On

Printer performs NPA processing. If data is not in NPA format, it is rejected as bad data.

Off

Printer does not perform NPA processing.

Auto*

Printer examines the data to determine the format and then processes it appropriately.

Note: Changing this menu item automatically resets the printer.

PCL SmartSwitch

Purpose:

To configure the printer so it automatically switches to PCL emulation when a print job received through the USB port requires it, regardless of the default printer language.

Values:

On*

Printer examines the data on the USB interface and selects PCL emulation if the data

 

indicates that is the required printer language.

Off

Printer does not examine the incoming data. The printer uses PostScript emulation to

 

process the job if PS SmartSwitch is On, or uses the default printer language specified in the

 

Setup Menu if PS SmartSwitch is Off.
