Using printer menus USB Menu Use this menu selection to change printer settings affecting a Universal Serial Bus (USB) port. Standard USB Menu selection PCL SmartSwitch Purpose Values Configures the printer so it automatically On* switches to PCL emulation when a print job received through the USB port requires it, regardless of the default printer language Off PS SmartSwitch Configures the printer so it automatically On* switches to PostScript emulation when a print job received through the USB port requires it, regardless of the default printer language Off NPA Mode USB Buffer Specifies whether the printer performs the special processing required for bidirectional communication, following the conventions defined in the Network Printing Alliance (NPA) Protocol Note: Changing this menu item automatically resets the printer. Off On Auto* Configures the size of the USB input buffer Note: Changing the USB Buffer menu item automatically resets the printer. Disabled Auto* 3K to maximum size allowed Printer examines the data on the USB port and selects PCL emulation if the data indicates that is the required printer language. Printer does not examine the incoming data. The printer uses PostScript emulation to process the job if PS SmartSwitch is On, or uses the default printer language specified in the Setup Menu if PS SmartSwitch is Off. Printer examines data on the USB interface and selects PostScript emulation if the data indicates that is the required 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. The printer will not perform any NPA processing. All data received by the printer must be in NPA packets. Any non-packet data received will be rejected as bad. Printer examines the incoming data to determine the format. If the incoming data is not NPA packets, the information is passed to the printer as non-NPA. Job buffering is disabled. Any jobs already buffered on the disk are printed before normal processing of incoming jobs resumes. Printer automatically calculates the USB Buffer size (recommended setting). User specifies the USB 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 USB Buffer size, disable or reduce the size of the parallel and network buffers. 27
