Using the MFP menus Standard Parallel or Parallel Use these menu items to change printer settings affecting jobs sent to the MFP through a parallel port, either Std Parallel or Parallel , where x represents 1 or 2. Menu item PCL SmartSwitch PS SmartSwitch NPA Mode Parallel Buffer Purpose Values and descriptions Configures the MFP so it On* automatically switches to PCL emulation when a print job received through the parallel port requires it, regardless of the default printer language. Off The MFP examines data on the parallel interface and selects PCL emulation if the data indicates that is the required printer language. The MFP does not examine the incoming data. The MFP 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. Configures the MFP so it On* automatically switches to PostScript emulation when a print job received through the parallel port requires it, regardless of the default printer language. Off The MFP examines data on the parallel interface and selects PostScript emulation if the data indicates that is the required printer language. The MFP does not examine the incoming data. The MFP 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. Specifies whether the MFP 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 MFP. It is reset to configure memory, and any permanent resources, such as fonts or macros, are lost. On Off Auto* The MFP performs NPA processing. If data is not in NPA format, it is rejected as bad data. The MFP does not perform NPA processing. The MFP examines data, determines the format, and then processes it appropriately. Configures the size of the parallel input buffer. Note: Changing this menu item automatically resets the MFP. It is reset to configure memory, and any permanent resources, such as fonts or macros, are lost. Disabled Auto* Disables job buffering. Any jobs already buffered on the hard disk are printed before normal processing of incoming jobs resumes. The MFP automatically calculates the Parallel Buffer size (recommended setting). 3K to maximum size allowed (1K increments) The user specifies the Parallel Buffer size. The maximum size depends on the amount of memory in the MFP, the size of the other link buffers, and whether Resource Save is set to On or Off. To maximize the range for the Parallel Buffer size, disable or reduce the size of the serial and USB buffers. Network/Ports 38
