HP 2420 - Manual (Page 179)

When you click Binary, all data except special control characters is sent in binary (8-bit) format. The
binary formats can be sent over parallel or serial communications ports and are faster than sending
data in ASCII format.
Send Ctrl-D Before Each Job
This control specifies whether the product will be reset at the beginning of every postscript
document. The default setting is No. Ctrl-D resets the product to its default setting to ensure that
previous print jobs do not affect the current print job. Ctrl-D might cause a print job to fail if the
product is connected through a network. If your document fails to print when sent to a product
connected through parallel or serial ports, change No to Yes.
Send Ctrl-D After Each Job
This control specifies whether the product will be reset at the end of every postscript document. The
default setting is Yes. Ctrl-D resets the product to its default setting to ensure that future print jobs
are not affected by the current print job. Ctrl-D might cause a print job to fail if the product is
connected through a network. If your document fails to print when sent to a network printer, change
Yes to No.
Job Timeout
This control specifies how long the document can take to get from the computer to the product before
the product stops trying to print the document. If you specify 0 seconds, the product continues trying
to print indefinitely. The default setting is 0 seconds. You can use the spin box to change this value
to a maximum of 32,767 seconds.
Wait Timeout
This control specifies how long the product waits to get more postscript information from the
computer. After the specified time passes, the product stops trying to print the document and prints
an error message. If you are trying to print a very complicated document, you might want to increase
this value. If you specify 0 seconds, the product waits indefinitely. The default setting is 300
seconds. You can use the spin box to change this value to a maximum of 32,767 seconds.
Minimum Font Size to Download as Outline
This control specifies the minimum font size (in pixels) for which the driver downloads TrueType fonts
as outline (Type 1) fonts. A font smaller than the minimum setting is downloaded as a bitmap (Type
3) font. Use this option to fine-tune the Automatic setting for the TrueType Font Download option
on the Advanced tab in Document Defaults. The default setting is 100 pixels. You can use the spin
box to change this value to a maximum of 32,767 pixels.
Maximum Font Size to Download as Outline
This control specifies the maximum font size (in pixels) for which the driver will download TrueType
fonts as bitmap (Type 3) fonts. A font larger than the maximum setting will be downloaded as an
outline (Type 1) font. Use this option to fine-tune the Automatic setting or override the Send
TrueType as Bitmap setting for the TrueType Font Download option on the Advanced tab in
Document Defaults. The default setting is 600 pixels. You can use the spin box to change this value
to a maximum of 32,767 pixels.
