Parallel Menu (continued) Menu item Printer setting Job Buffering Note: Job Buffering is only displayed when a hard disk option is installed, is neither defective nor Read/Write or Write protected, and when Job Buffer Size is not set to Disabled. = Off* = On Job Buffering temporarily stores jobs on a hard disk option before being printed, usually freeing the host computer while the job prints. If 61 Defective Disk appears when the printer is turned on, or during disk format and write operations, refer to the User's Reference for more information. If Job Buffering is set to On, print jobs are buffered to the hard disk option. If Job Buffering is set to Off, print jobs are not buffered. Note: Changing the Job Buffering setting automatically resets the printer. Advanced Status = Off = On* If Advanced Status is set to On, bidirectional communication is enabled through the parallel interface. If Advanced Status is set to Off, bidirectional communication in the parallel output buffer is immediately flushed, and parallel port negotiation is disabled. Protocol = Standard = Fastbytes* You can select Standard or Fastbytes protocol for the parallel interface. Fastbytes is compatible with most existing parallel interface implementations. Use Standard only if you experience parallel interface problems. Refer to theTechnical Reference for more information about the parallel interface. Honor Init = Off* = On The Honor Init 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. * Factory default Changing printer settings 70
