Lexmark X748DE Printer User Manual


 
Use To
PS SmartSwitch
On
Off
Set the printer to automatically switch to PS emulation when a print job received
through a serial port requires it, regardless of the default printer language.
Notes:
On is the factory default setting.
When set to Off, the printer does not examine incoming data. The printer uses
PCL emulation if PCL SmartSwitch is set to On. It uses the default printer
language specified in the Setup menu if PCL SmartSwitch is set to Off.
NPA Mode
On
Off
Auto
Set the printer to perform the special processing required for bidirectional
communication following the conventions defined by the NPA protocol.
Notes:
Auto is the factory default setting.
Changing this setting from the printer control panel and then exiting the
menus causes the printer to restart. The menu selection is then updated.
Parallel Buffer
Disabled
Auto
3K to [maximum size allowed]
Set the size of the parallel input buffer.
Notes:
Auto is the factory default setting.
Disabled turns off job buffering. Any print jobs already buffered on the printer
hard disk are printed before normal processing resumes.
The parallel buffer size setting can be changed in 1KB increments.
The maximum size allowed depends on the amount of memory in the printer,
the size of the other link buffers, and whether Resource Save is set to On or
Off.
To increase the maximum size range for the Parallel Buffer, disable or reduce
the size of the USB, serial, and network buffers.
Changing this setting from the printer control panel and then exiting the
menus causes the printer to restart. The menu selection is then updated.
Job Buffering
Off
On
Auto
Temporarily store print jobs on the printer hard disk before printing.
Notes:
Off is the factory default setting.
On buffers print jobs on the printer hard disk.
Auto buffers print jobs only if the printer is busy processing data from another
input port.
Changing this setting from the printer control panel and then exiting the
menus causes the printer to restart. The menu selection is then updated.
Advanced Status
On
Off
Enable bidirectional communication through the parallel port.
Notes:
On is the factory default setting.
Off disables parallel port negotiation.
