Response Polarity

The Response Polarity parameter must be set to match the response polarity of your host computer.

Standard. Does not invert the response signal.

Inverted. Inverts the response signal sent to the host computer.

Busy On Strobe

Enable. Asserts a busy signal after each character is received.

Disable. Asserts a busy signal only when the print buffers are full.

Latch Data On

Specifies whether the data is read on the leading or trailing edge of the data strobe signal.

Prime Signal

Enable. The parallel port will perform a warm start (reboot) if the host asserts the Prime Signal.

Disable. The parallel port will not perform a warm start (reboot) if the host asserts the Prime Signal.

TOF Action

Reset. A form feed is performed before a warm start when the prime signal is asserted from the host. This setting is used only if the Prime Signal parameter is enabled.

Do Nothing. Nothing occurs before a warm start when the prime signal is asserted from the host.

Buffer Size In K

Configures the amount of memory allocated for the Centronics parallel port buffer. You can specify between 1 and 16 Kbytes, in 1-Kbyte increments.
