NPA Mode Parallel Buffer Advanced Status Protocol Honor Init Parallel Mode 2 Mac Binary PS parallel port requires it, regardless of the default printer language. Off Specifies whether the printer performs the special processing On required for bidirectional communication, following the conventions defined in the Network Printing Alliance (NPA) Protocol. Off printer language. Printer does not examine the incoming data. The printer uses PCL emulation to process the job if PCL SmartSwitch is On, or uses the default printer language specified in the Setup Menu if PCL SmartSwitch is Off. Printer performs NPA processing. If data is not in NPA format, it is rejected as bad data. Printer does not perform NPA processing. NOTE: Changing this menu item automatically resets the printer. Auto* Printer examines data, determines the format, and then processes it appropriately. Configures the size of the parallel input buffer. NOTE: Changing this menu item automatically resets the printer. Disabled Auto* Disables job buffering. Any jobs already buffered on the disk are printed before normal processing of incoming jobs resumes. Printer automatically calculates the Parallel Buffer size (recommended setting). 3K to maximum size allowed User specifies the Parallel Buffer size. The maximum size depends on the amount of memory in the printer, the size of the other link buffers, and whether Resource Save is set to On or Off. To maximize the range for the Parallel Buffer size, disable or reduce the size of the serial and USB buffers. Enables bidirectional communication through the parallel port. Off On* Disables parallel port negotiation. Enables bidirectional communication through the parallel interface. Specifies the parallel interface protocol. Standard May resolve some parallel interface problems. Fastbytes* Provides compatibility with most existing parallel interface implementations (recommended setting). Determines whether the printer honors hardware initialization requests from the computer. The computer requests initialization by activating the INIT signal on the parallel interface. Many personal computers activate the INIT signal each time the computer is turned on and off. Off* On Printer does not honor hardware initialization requests from the computer. Printer honors hardware initialization requests from the computer. Determines whether the parallel port data is sampled on the On* leading or trailing edge of strobe. Off Samples parallel port data on the leading edge of strobe. Samples parallel port data on the trailing edge of strobe. Configures the printer to process Macintosh binary PostScript On print jobs. Printer processes raw binary PostScript print jobs from computers using the Macintosh operating system. Off Auto* NOTE: This setting often causes Windows print jobs to fail. Printer filters PostScript print jobs using standard protocol. Printer processes print jobs from computers using either Windows or Macintosh operating systems.
