PS SmartSwitch
= Off
= On*
If PS SmartSwitch is set to On, the printer examines the data on
the serial interface connection and selects PostScript emulation
if the data indicates that is the printer language.
If both PCL SmartSwitch and PS SmartSwitch are set to Off,
the printer uses the language specified in the Printer Language
menu as the default. If only one SmartSwitch setting is set to
On, the printer uses that language as the default.
NPA Mode
= On
= Off
= Auto*
NPA is a mode of bidirectional communication that follows the
conventions defined in Network Printing Alliance Protocol, a
Printer/Host Control Specification developed by the NPA. NPA
mode requires special processing of the print data.
If NPA Mode is set to On, the data received must be in NPA
format. If not, it is rejected as bad data. If NPA Mode is set to
Off, the printer does not perform any NPA processing. If NPA
Mode is set to Auto, the printer examines the data to determine
the format and then processes it in either format.
The NPA Mode setting in the Serial Menu applies only to the
serial interface connection.
Note:
Changing the NPA Mode setting automatically resets the
printer.
