Ignore EOF Character Yes/No [Yes] This option appears only if Enable Parallel Port is set to Yes. This option specifies that the Fiery SI should ignore end-of-file (EOF) messages in a file. This option must be set to Yes to print PostScript files in binary format (not ASCII); under normal circumstances, it should be set to No. When this option is set to Yes, the Fiery SI uses the parallel port timeout value to determine when the end of the file has been reached.

Setting up the Fiery SI
Parallel Port Setup options
Parallel port printing is enabled in Server Setup; port setup is completed in Network
Setup. You must have set the Server Setup Parallel Port option to
Enabled (Input)
in
order to print to the parallel port and enter the Parallel Port Setup options.
Port Timeout in Seconds
5-60 [5]
This option appears only if
Enable Parallel Port
is set to
Yes
. Your setting determines
how long the Fiery SI waits without receiving data from the parallel port before decid-
ing that the current job is complete. Until the timeout, the Fiery SI cannot receive new
jobs through the parallel port, but it can continue to receive network print jobs.
Ignore EOF Character
Yes/No [Yes]
This option appears only if
Enable Parallel Port
is set to
Yes
. This option specifies that
the Fiery SI should ignore end-of-file (EOF) messages in a file. This option must be set
to
Yes
to print PostScript files in binary format (not ASCII); under normal circum-
stances, it should be set to
No
. When this option is set to
Yes
, the Fiery SI uses the par-
allel port timeout value to determine when the end of the file has been reached.
When you have configured the parallel port options, choose another network type and
protocol, or choose Exit Network Setup and proceed to Printer Setup.
