Changing the Interface Settings

Network

With a network interface (such as HP JetDirect Print Server), refer to your network
interface documentation for advice on any front-panel configuration. The
front-panel menu is

I/O Setup / Modular / MIO

...

Serial

With a serial interface, you should have configured it when installing the printer, as
explained from page 1-26. However, you may need to reconfigure it:

when you connect a new computer to the printer

when you output to the printer from a new application

if you experience problems with distorted or unintelligible prints

Parallel

With a parallel interface, no front-panel configuration is necessary.

To Change the Serial Interface Settings

This task is explained in detail from page 1-26, including a note of the defaults and
likely requirements.

To Change the I/O Timeout Setting

Some software may not write a proper file terminator at the end of the file. In this
case, the printer will not know that the file is complete and will wait for more data
until the end of the “I/O Timeout” period. By default, this period is 30 minutes,
but you can change it in the menu (indicated on the left) to as little as 30 seconds.
