[Local Printer Parallel Port]: Introduction—Messages and Status Reporting
Nibble mode was added in release level 2111.
(*4) See
“About Error Reporting in ECP Mode” [page 142]
.
Some printers can be programmed to use ECP mode or Com-
patible even if their default negotiation mode is something else
entirely. Consult the manual for your printer.
You may not always be sure about the printer’s capabilities.
Therefore, the settings you can choose for the
“Parallel Port
IEEE P1284 Negotiation Mode”
parameter include fall-backs so
that if the first attempt at negotiation fails, the print server will
choose an alternative. After choosing a setting and rebooting,
“Status” > [Target Printer Information] will show you which
mode has successfully been enabled as “Target Communica-
tion Protocol”.
