Maximum Space Assigned to Virtual Mailboxes (VMB)

This changes the hard disk space for virtual mailboxes. You can

change the maximum space from 0 to 9999 (megabytes). The

actual maximum size depends on the size of free hard disk

space, however. The default size is 1/6 of the total hard disk

space, rounded off in unit of 50 MB. For example, if the total

hard disk space is 3.2 GB, the default size is 500 MB.

2.2.4 Changing the Interface Parameters

The printer is equipped with both a parallel and serial interface

or a network interface. Various printing environment parameters

such as the default emulation can be changed independently on

different interfaces by using the printer’s menu selection sys-

tem. Select the interface to apply the changes in the procedure

described below.

This interface selection described below does not select which

interface data will be received from. The printer automatically

selects an interface.

Q

Changing Parallel Interface Modes
