Auto Polling
Both the serial port and parallel port of this printer can be activated
at the same time, i.e the printer can simultaneously communicate
with two PC via different port. However as no port contention is
made for this printer, if both PC transmit data at the same time to
this printer, the data may become damaged in the receiving buffer.
