99999, with a factory default of 00030. If the printer
goes idle after 30 seconds and does not print, this
timeout should be increased. Large jobs, such as
graphics applications or computer-aided design,
require this number to be increased to 00300. Note:
When a print job is sent from a Macintosh, the PS Wait
timeout is automatically changed to 300.
Emul Timeout The number of seconds that emulations other than
PostScript (such as HP-GL or an optional emulation)
wait for additional incoming data, from 00000 (no
timeout) to 99999, with a factory default of 00005.
Job Timeout The number of seconds the printer spends processing a
job before it ends the job, from 00000 (no timeout) to
99999, with a factory default of 00000 (no timeout).
ESP Timeout The number of seconds the printer (when set for ESP
mode) spends trying to match emulations before
printing the job using the default emulation
(Administration/Emulations/ESP Default menu), from
00000 (no timeout) to 99999, with a factory default of
00003.
Administration/Communications/Serial
This option allows you to configure the printer-host
communications when using the serial interface.
Mode Mode allows or disallows the PostScript emulation
interactive mode from the host. The options are
interactive, noninteractive, and disabled. If mode is set
to disabled, the printer accepts no jobs through this
protocol. Interactive mode allows two-way
communication between the host and the printer.
Non-interactive is unidirectional communication from
the host computer to the printer only. The factory
default is interactive. The printer must be rebooted for
a change in this setting to take effect.
Emulation This option selects the emulation for the printer serial
port. The emulations available are ESP, PostScript, HP
PCL 5C, HP-GL, Lineprinter, and Hexdump. Optional
