AUTO-SENSE
This option specifies how the printer’s memory is allocated among
the channels. There are two basic settings: AUTO-SENSE and
INDIVIDUAL. With AUTO-SENSE the printer automatically detects
which interface channel (parallel, serial, or optional) is being used.
This is the default setting and is the best choice for most uses of the
printer. The INDIVIDUAL setting requires you to add memory to
the printer and allows you to allocate independent memory to each
channel. Choose INDIVIDUAL only if you regularly print raw data
such as DOS text or program lists.
If you want to change the setting, press to enter the option, then
press or to choose INDIVIDUAL or AUTO-SENSE.
If the channel shown is correct, press twice to save the setting. If
you need to change the channel, press to move to the channel
position, then press or to select the channel (P, S, or 0) you
want. This setting determines which channel is the default, but if the
default channel is not in use, the printer uses any other channel that
is being used. Then press D to set the channel.
After you set the channel, you see the following display:
Press D to execute the save and initialize operation. Your setting is
now saved and also is in effect every time you turn the printer on.
