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 data and determines the format and then processes it appropriately. |
Note: Changing this menu item automatically resets the printer.
Parallel Buffer
Purpose:
To configure the size of the parallel input buffer.
Values:
Disabled | Disables job buffering. Any jobs already buffered on the disk are printed before |
| normal processing of incoming jobs resumes. |
Auto* | Printer automatically calculates the Parallel Buffer size (recommended setting). |
3K to maximum | User specifies the Parallel Buffer size. The maximum size depends on the |
size allowed | amount of memory in your printer, the size of the other link buffers, and |
| whether Resource Save is set to On or Off. To maximize the range for the |
| Parallel Buffer size, disable or reduce the size of the serial, infrared, LocalTalk, |
| and USB buffers. |
Note: Changing the Parallel Buffer menu item automatically resets the printer.
