Communication Protocol. Selects the mode of Bi-Directional communications. In most cases this
menu does not need to be altered and is meant to help support legacy applications which may
have incorporated older bi-directional statuses. Anything other than Staus 5 or Standard (none) is
not recommended.
• Status 5 - factory default. Most advanced of the options. This status is the most recent and
represented in the interface specifications. For more information, refer to the appropriate
section in the programming and interface guide.
• Standard - bi-directional interface is not used.
• Status 2 - legacy bi-directional support. Not recommended for new applications.
• Status 3 - legacy bi-directional support. Not recommended for new applications.
• Status 4 - legacy bi-directional support. Not recommended for new applications.
There are only two options relative to the serial interface, ignore all others.
• Auto Switching - the printer automatically switches to the relative interface type and moves
into the applicable menus.
• Ethernet - factory default. Allows the operator to select the interface and the relative menus
will follow.
Is a transitional screen that allows entry into the Net BIOS Protocol menu.
Allows determination of if the NIC will recognize the NetBIOS protocol.
• Enable - factory default. Will recognize.
• Disable - will not recognize.
This options allows for the port number to be set for ASCII print jobs. The data port number must
match the host computer setting.
The allowable range is 0 to 65535, and the factory default is 9100.
Determines the amount of time that the tcp connection will remain connected after the print job
has terminated.
The allowable range is 2 to 10 minutes, and the factory default is 3 minutes.
This menu appears only if a 10/100Base-t Network Interface Card (NIC) is installed. There are
five different speed modes to allow compatibility with different systmes and networks.
• Auto Select - factory default. Tells the 10/100Base-T NIC to perform an automatic detection
scheme and configure itself to be one of the other allowable options.
• 10 Half Duplex - communicates at 10 megabytes per second using half duplex.
• 10 Full Duplex - communicates at 10 megabytes per second using full duplex.
• 100 Half Duplex - communicates at 100 megabytes per second using half duplex.
• 100 Full Duplex - communicates at 100 megabytes per second using full duplex.
