Auto Polling

Both the serial port and parallel port of this printer can be active at the same

time, i.e. the printer can simultaneously communicate with two PCs via

different ports. Note that there is no port contention, so if both PCs transmit

data at the same time data may become damaged in the receiving buffer.
