BI-DIRECTION
Sets whether or not to enable bi-directional communication. It is not
generally necessary to change this setting. However, depending on
the PC you are using, bi-directional communication may not be pos-
sible. If your PC does not support bi-directional communication, set
this setting to Off.
IO TIMEOUT
An IO Timeout occurs when the printer cannot detect the final data
code for a print job that was sent from the computer. The
IO Time-
out setting acts as a timer that allows the printer a specified period
of time in which to determine if a document has finished printing or
not.
If an
IO Timeout
occurs when the
PCL
setting is enabled, all data
that still remains inside of the printer is output and the printer
returns to the READY mode. When the
PS
setting is enabled, all
data that remains inside of the printer is erased and the printer
returns to the READY mode.
