On Printer processes raw binary PostScript print jobs from computers using the Macintosh
operating system.
Note: This setting often causes Windows print jobs to fail.
Off Printer filters PostScript print jobs using standard protocol.
Auto* Printer accepts print jobs from computers using either Windows or Macintosh operating
systems.
On Printer performs NPA processing. If data is not in NPA format, it is rejected as bad data.
Off Printer does not perform NPA processing.
Auto* Printer examines the data to determine the format and then processes it appropriately.
On* Printer examines the data on the USB interface and selects PCL emulation if the data
indicates that is the required printer language.
Off Printer does not examine the incoming data. The printer uses PostScript emulation to
process the job if PS SmartSwitch is On, or uses the default printer language specified in the
Setup Menu if PS SmartSwitch is Off.
