HOST INTERFACE

252 

Buffer Size in K

This option configures the amount of memory allocated for the 
serial port buffer. You may specify between 1 and 16 Kbytes, in 
1-Kbyte increments.

NOTE:

If you select a baud rate that is 19200 or greater, you may 
need to increase the Buffer Size in K parameter from the 
default to 16 Kbytes to improve performance.

Poll Character

This option is for the Series1 protocol. Whenever the printer 
receives this character, it sends a response to the host indicating 
the current state of the printer (see Series1 protocol). It may be 
configured from 0 through FF hexadecimal. 

Poll Response

This option is for the Series1 protocol. After receiving a poll 
character, the printer will wait the poll response time in milliseconds 
before sending the response. It may be configured from 0 through 
30.
