option, and then initialize the printer. See the P-CONFIG SAVE
option later in this chapter.
TIMEOUT
This option is available only when the PostScript card is installed.
Use this option to specify the time (in seconds) for intelligent
emulation switch timeout. When the intelligent emulation
switching channel receives no more data, it enters the timeout
status. During the timeout it cannot switch to another mode;
instead, it prints all data received in the current mode. You can tell
when the timeout is over by the display, which switches from
showing READY and the current mode to showing PS and the
other selected mode. For example, if LJ-3 is the other selected
mode, the display shows READY LJ-3 during the timeout and
PS&LJ-3 after the timeout. Do not send any data in the new mode
until the display changes. You can set a different timeout value for
each mode. The factory setting is 30 for PS mode and
10
for OTR
(other). This option is available only when an IES setting is
selected.
