Kyocera FS-1010 service manual Parallel interface, Selecting the parallel interface mode

Parallel interface

The printer uses a bidirectional parallel interface for high-speed data transmission for the host computer. This interface includes the buffers which are compatible with the IEEE 1284 standards. The parallel interface provides support for the ECP and nibble modes in this standards. The parallel interface mode can be changed by commanding Prescribe commands on a PC.

Selecting the parallel interface mode

To change the parallel interface mode, a PC running MS-DOS is needed. Connect the printer to the PC via the parallel interface. Then, at the DOS prompt, type a FRPO O0 (the letter O and the number zero) command as follows depending on the desired parallel mode:

To set the parallel interface mode...		Type at the DOS prompt...
	Normal	echo !R! FPRO O0, 0; EXIT; lpt1:
	High-speed	echo !R! FPRO O0, 1; EXIT; lpt1:
	Nibble	echo !R! FPRO O0, 5; EXIT; lpt1:
	Automatic*	echo !R! FPRO O0, 70; EXIT; lpt1:
			*: Factory-set default.
