Auto I/F (interface) wait time
This setting takes effect only when I/F (interface) mode is set to
Auto . This setting determines how long the printer waits when it
no longer receives data from an interface before it checks whether
a print job is being sent through the other interface. You can
specify
10 seconds or 30 seconds for the auto interface wait
time.
Baud rate
Use this option to set the data transfer rate (baud) for the serial
interface. The baud rate is measured in bits per second (bps). See
your computer manual and software documentation for the
proper setting.
Parity
When this option is set to None , parity checking is disabled. The
parity bit, if used, provides a basic form of error detection. See
your computer manual and software documentation for the
proper setting.
Data length
Set the data length of the serial interface to 7 bit or 8 bit . See your
computer manual and software documentation for the proper
setting.
Parallel I/F bidirectional mode
The parallel interface bidirectional transfer mode is used when
this feature is turned on. If bidirectional transfer mode is
unnecessary, turn this off.
Packet mode
Select Auto to use the IEEE-1284.4 packet transfer mode. If packet
transfer mode is unnecessary, or if you cannot connect, turn this
off.
