USING THE M208’S COMMAND SET: npsh Command Set 113
[-]bbmode Simulate an attached printer even if a printer isn’t really
there.
[-]fastmode Increase transfer rate.The parallel interface of the attached
printer must be able to support this increased rate and if using
this mode, use only with short (less than two meter) low-
capacitance cabling.
[-]onlcr Enable [disable] carriage return insertion.
[-]opost Allow output processing such as onlcr, xtab, and descram-
bling. With “-”, do not allow any of this processing.
[-]slowmode Slow the transfer rate to match that of a PC’s parallel port.
Might be necessary with older, slower laser printers.
[-]vslowmode Slow the transfer rate even more to accommodate certain
printers.
flush Flush the data in the parallel I/O port’s output buffer.
unlock Release the access lock on the parallel I/O port.
Caution
Using the unlock option when an I/O port is active can cause output from two
jobs to intermix.
set prn timeout <
INT
>
Terminate a print job sent to the parallel I/O port if it is not printed after the
timeout period (INT is time in minutes). If the timeout is set to zero (0), the
timeout feature is also disabled.
Printer errors will cause the M208 to postpone printing until the printer is
fixed regardless of this timeout feature being set or not. Therefore, no data
will be lost.
