Changing the Interface Parameters

The printer is equipped with both a parallel and USB interfaces. Option serial interface
board kit and network interface card can also be installed. Various printing environment
parameters such as the default emulation can be changed independently on different
interfaces by using the printer’s menu selection system. Select the interface to apply the
changes in the procedure described below.

Note

This interface selection described below does not select which interface data will be
received from. The printer automatically selects an interface data to be received.
