NPA is a mode of bidirectional communication that follows the Network
Printing Alliance Protocol, A Printer/Host Control Specification Developed by the
NPA. This mode requires the printer to perform special processing of the
data. The NPA Mode menu item under SERIAL MENU only applies to the
serial interface connection.
If
NPA Mode
is set
On
, the data received must be in NPA format. If not, it is
rejected as bad data. If
NPA Mode
is set
Off
, the printer does not perform
any NPA processing. If
NPA Mode
is set to
Auto
, the printer examines the
data to determine the format and then processes it in either format.
Changing the NPA Mode setting automatically resets the printer.
