Parallel Communications
The parallel communications menu allows you to set the active parallel port to either
internal or external. The internal port is used for printer options installed inside the printer,
such as the Ethernet communication port. Use the external selection when connecting a
printer cable or external device directly to the parallel port.
The mode selection allows the user to select either compatible or IEEE-1284 mode when
using the selected parallel port. Usually, the mode should be set to compatible for
computer connection using a parallel cable and to IEEE-1284 when using an Ethernet port
option. See Appendix B, "Accessories and Options" for more information about Ethernet
options.
The parallel communication values are listed in the table below.
