High Trip Pt%
This sub-menu is used to configure a High Trip Point setting for the
serial setup as a percentage of total buffer size. This setting
configures the point where the printer transmits a signal to the host
when the buffer is a set percentage full. For example, the default
setting is set to 80. This means the printer will send a full buffer
signal to the host that the buffer is full when the buffer is 80% to
capacity. The 20% buffer capacity acts as a cushion allowing enough
time for the printer to process the data in its buffer while giving the
host time to stop transmitting data before the buffer is completely
(100%) full and data is lost. This option is a user-defined setting.
