Parallel Mode 2

Purpose:

To determine whether the parallel port data is sampled on the leading or trailing edge of strobe.

Values:

On* Samples parallel port data on the leading edge of strobe.

Off

PCL SmartSwitch

Purpose:

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

Values:

On*

Printer examines data on the parallel 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.
