Creating and managing forms 17 Menu item Local Port Timeout 1-100 Copy Formsets Copy replace duplicates Copy do not replace Description This allows users to select a timeout value for forms jobs that come in on any of the local ports (serial, USB, or parallel). This setting does not apply to forms jobs sent to the network ports. The default value is 4 seconds. When Formsmerge is active on a local port, then a job will time out when triggered by the Local Port Timeout or the Printer Timeout- whichever is shorter. This terminates the current job as if an "End of Form" character has been reached. This allows the printer to download forms from a flash drive. Notes: • "Copy replace duplicates" allows the user to copy and replace existing formsets of the same name. • "Copy do not replace" does not copy formsets with duplicate names. • When using this feature, make sure a formsmerge (case‑sensitive) directory exists in the flash drive.
