Auto interface selection

Select the setting menu and enter the sub-setting menu to change the
setting as follows:

■ Automatic Interface Selection

When you select this function with the

Set

button, the display shows the

next sub-setting menu.
You need to set the time out for the auto interface selection from 1 to 99
seconds with the ▲ or ▼ button: factory setting = 5 seconds. This time
out is the duration during which the printer will not allow another
automatic change to the interface.
Even if you choose the automatic interface selection, you need to set the
communications parameters for the serial interface, high speed/bi-
directional communications for the parallel interface, and the optional
interface settings if the installed MIO card requires them. See the tables
below.

For further information about automatic interface selection, see
“AUTOMATIC INTERFACE SELECTION” in Chapter 3.
