5.1.3 Setting Diagnostic Functions and Configurations via Data Stream
The IntelliBar AS Net IPDS settings can be configured via the parallel port by sending a short
string that identifies the parameter to be set and the value it is to have. The data stream
commands can perform a factory reset, print the IPDS interpreter configuration self-test and set
the printer default IPDS page size. The following table describes the data stream command
strings and their functions.
