You should keep the following in mind when selecting the emulation.
Only the 3812 emulation supports HP laser printer commands.
If you have a choice between the 5224 and 4214 emulations, you should select
4214. The 4214 emulation adds control of the following features: lines per inch,
pitch, graphics, print quality, and single-sheet handling.
If your printer supports Epson Job Language (EJL) commands, do not change the
printer mode using the EJL commands or the command-pass-thru feature while
the interface is installed. Also you may not be able to change the printer mode
using the control panel.
Never select the PostScript™ printer mode while this interface is installed.
PREPARING TO INSTALL THE INTERFACE CARD
Before installing this interface card you may need to set several jumpers,
depending
on
the following factors:
The type of Epson printer you are using
The type of IBM printer you want the interface to emulate
The type of twin-axial connector your host system uses
