Understanding the operator panel
Network Buffer
To configure the size of the network
input buffer.
Note:
Changing the Network Buffer
menu item automatically resets the
printer.
Auto*
Printer automatically calculates the
Network Buffer size (recommended
setting).
3K to maximum
size allowed
User specifies the Network Buffer size.
The maximum size depends on the
amount of memory in your printer, the
size of the other link buffers, and
whether Resource Save is set to On or
Off. To maximize the range for the
Network Buffer size, disable or reduce
the size of the parallel, serial, and USB
buffers.
NPA Mode
To specify 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
Printer does not perform NPA
processing.
Auto*
Printer examines the data to determine
the format and then processes it
appropriately.
PCL
SmartSwitch
To configure the printer so it
automatically switches to
PCL emulation when a print job
received through the network port
requires it, regardless of the default
printer language.
On*
Printer examines data on the network
interface and selects PCL emulation if
the data indicates that is the required
printer language.
Off
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.
PS
SmartSwitch
To configure the printer so it
automatically switches to
PostScript emulation when a print job
received through the network port
requires it, regardless of the default
printer language.
On*
Printer examines data on the network
interface connection and selects
PostScript emulation if the data
indicates that is the required printer
language.
Off
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.
Std Net Setup
To configure an internal print server.
Values for this menu item are supplied by the specific print
server. Select the menu item to see the available values.
Note:
