initialization requests from the
computer.
On
The MFP honors hardware
initialization requests from the
computer.

Samples parallel port data on the
trailing edge of strobe.

Macintosh binary PostScript print
jobs.

The MFP processes print jobs from
computers using either Windows or
Macintosh operating systems.
