interface. At the rear of printer there is a second interface installation slot,
which is for option interface. The slot can be installed with option boards
and cards as below:
•

•
second serial interface board and USB interface board
•
second serial interface board
•
USB interface board
CAUTION: When printer equipped with second or more other data
communication interface boards, interface’s working mode
can be selected by menu setup configuration.
1 Working with single communication port
Printer can only work according to the interface mode and emulation
selected by menu configuration, even if printer has been equipped with
more interface boards.
2 Working with dual-port
•
If printer has been equipped with option interface board, operator can
set up printer’s working mode to be dual-port mode through the
operator panel to meet different usage requirement.
•
If printer has been installed second serial port board and USB interface
board, there are only two serial ports( first serial port and second serial
port) can work synchronously. Under this configuration, printer can
check witch port is active. Any one of these two ports, if its data has
been received, printer will be under the contol of this port, and be kept
in this state till this port’s task is end. Two ports are independent. And
two ports have the same configuration except emulation mode.
Emulation mode can be shifted by commands.
•
If printer has been installed with second parallel interface board and
configured as dual-port activity, it will check witch port’s buffer has data.
If any one of these two ports detect data has been received, printer will
be under the control of the port and it will be kept in this state till port’s
task is end. Dual-port functionality and corresponding parameters can
be selected though operator panel. Under the especial circumstance,
each port can has its own emulation mode, and emulation mode can be
shifted by using commands.
