HP (Hewlett-Packard) 24SII Printer User Manual


 
The Model 24SII's generous built-in buffer also saves valuable
computer time by spooling data until the printer or plotter can receive
it, keeping your users and computers working full time instead of
waiting. The spooling buffer on the Model 24SII DES can range from
0 MB to 16MB in 1MB or 4MB increments. The buffer is field
upgradable. For printer and plotter sharing applications, you must
have a minimum of 1MB installed on the initial purchase.
You may program the following features to meet the requirements of
your application: the Port Designation (computer or printer) for each
port, the individual Serial Port Configuration (baud rate, word size,
stop bits, parity, and XON/XOFF), the Printer Sharing Mode (high
speed serial modules only), the 4-Wire/8-Wire Operation (M24SII-V07
high speed serial module only), the Port Logical Names, the Input
Inactivity Timeout, the Port Select Code, the Port Select Mode, the
Form Feed Mode, the I.D. Page Message, and the Default Printer
Assignment. Programming of these features is easily accomplished
via the menu-driven configuration mode, and all changes are saved
permanently in non-volatile memory. BayTech provides terminal
emulation software for this purpose.
The number of ports on the Model 24SII DES can range from four to
twenty-four in multiples of four. The actual number of ports is
determined by the number of I/O modules installed. Each I/O module
has four (4) ports. The Model 24SII DES can have a maximum of six
(6) modules installed. You may install additional I/O modules after
initial purchase to increase the number of ports on your Model 24SII
DES.
We will refer to individual ports on the Model 24SII DES by module
number and port number. The module number for an individual port
may range from 1 to 6. The port number for an individual port may
range from 1 to 4, with Port 1 being the top port. For example, we
refer to the master configuration port as Port 1 of Module 1. Module 1
inserts to the slot marked "Module 1" on the top of the back panel.
