Sets 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.

When the On setting is used, the printer performs NPA processing. If the data

is not in NPA format, it is rejected as bad data.

When the Off setting is used, the printer does not perform NPA processing.

When the Auto setting is used, the printer examines data, determines the

format, and then processes it appropriately.

Changing this setting from the control panel and then exiting the menus causes

the printer to restart. The menu selection is updated.
