IEEE 1284
•
Prime Signal
•
Disable
(factory default). A prime signal from the host is ignored.
•
Enable
. A prime signal from the host resets the printer.
•
TOF Action
•
Reset
(factory default). If the printer is reset by a prime signal the
printer first moves to the next TOF.
•
Do Nothing
. If the printer is reset by a prime signal the printer will not
move to the next TOF.
•
Buffer Size in K
. This option configures the amount of memory allocated
for the Ethernet buffer. The range is 1-16 Kbytes, in 1-Kbyte increments.
The factory default is 16 Kbytes.
•
Offline Process
•
Disable
(factory default). When set to disable, the printer does not
process parallel/network data while offline.
•
Enable
. When set to enable, the printer continues to process (but not
print) the current network/parallel job while the printer is offline until
the printer's buffer is full.
USB Port
•
Buffer Size in K
. This option configures the amount of memory allocated
for the serial port buffer. The range is 1-16 Kbytes, in 1-Kbyte increments.
The factory default is 16.
•
Timeout
.
This item allows you to set the time that the printer, when it has
not received data from its host, will begin to service all other host ports
looking for data to print.
The range is 1-60 seconds, and the default is 10 seconds.
Serial Port
•
Baud Rate
.
Sets the baud rate of the serial interface in the printer. Baud
rate is the speed at which serial data is transferred between the host
computer and the printer. The options for the RS-232 interface are 600,
1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, and 115200 Baud.
NOTE:
If you select a baud rate that is greater than 19200 and you
experience data loss, you may need to lower the baud rate.
The factory default is 16K.
The factory default is 9600.
•
Word Length
. Sets the length of the serial data word. The length of the
data word can be set to 7 or 8 bits and must match the corresponding
data bits setting in the host computer.
The factory default is 8.
