Parallel Interface

This section describes the user tools in the Parallel Interface menu under Interface Settings.

[Parallel Interface] is displayed when this machine is installed with the IEEE 1284 interface board.

Parallel Timing

Set the timing for the control signal of the parallel interface.

Normally, you do not need to change this setting.

Default: [ACK Outside]

Parallel Communication Speed

Set the communication speed for the parallel interface. If the speed is too high, data may not be transferred smoothly. If this happens, change the setting to [Standard].

Default: [High Speed]

Selection Signal Status

Set the level for the select signal of the parallel interface.

Default: [High]

Input Prime

Set whether to validate or invalidate the input prime signal upon reception.

Normally, you do not need to change this setting.

Default: [Inactive]

Bidirectional Communication

Set the printer's response mode to a status acquisition request when using a parallel interface. If you experience problems using another manufacturer's machine, set this to [Off].

Default: [On]

When set to [Off], the bidirectional communication function will be disabled, and the printer driver will not be installed under the Windows Auto Detect function.

Signal Control

Specify how to handle errors that occur during printing operation or facsimile transmission from a computer.

Default: [Job Acceptance Priority]
