Operating Notes for Emulation Selection
■ The most common use of the QMS-PS 410 printer (if
attached with both serial and parallel cables and one host
system) is to configure one port for HP PCL emulation and
one port for PostScript mode. You may then direct your
files to a particular port (either the LPT port or the COM
port) without having to send software commands to change
the port’s configuration or use the ESP mode for both ports.
■ A note to keep in mind if you use the printer in a shared
environment (more than one host system is attached to the
printer) is to keep your port set to ESP mode. If you do
change the emulation, always return whatever port you
configured to ESP. This assures that your printer partners
are not inconvenienced.
■ Th e P os t Sc r i pt oper ators, setsoftwareiomode,
setdefaultemulation, a nd setemulation must be sent
through a port configured either to PostScript or ESP mode.
We recommend that if you are using your printer with more
than one interface cable, you have at least one interface
configured to PostScript mode. This ensures that at least
one interface is able to understand the printer’s native
language, PostScript, at all times.
■ To change from an HP PCL emulation, you must follow
the instructions under the previous section “Exiting
Non-PostScript Printer Languages."
