Interfaces
Your printer offers the possibility of operating either via a parallel, a
serial or a USB interface. There is also a printer model with a second
serial interface. This chapter informs you about the interfaces and
describes the communication between your computer and the printer.
Interface settings for
User 1 and USER2 Your printer allows you to set and use two independent menu
configurations for the selection of the interfaces (USER1/USER2).
It is possible, to select different intefaces for USER1 and USER2
(e.g. USER1: serial interface and USER2: parallel interface).
It is also possible to select the same interface for USER1 and USER2.
If so, any changes of the interface settings in menu mode (see
Menu, in-
terfaces
, page 62) for USER1 will be transferred to USER2. In contrast
thereto changes of the interface settings for USER2 will not be trans-
ferred to USER1.
If the parameter “Share User” in Setup mode is set to “Auto” (see
Share User
, page 59), the printer will handle print jobs for USER1 and
USER2 automatically. (E.g. if a print job for USER2 interface is recei-
ved the printer switches to USER2 and starts printing after a paper has
been inserted.) If it is set to “Manual” after receiving a print job for
USER1 or USER2 the respective USER1 or USER2 key must be pres-
sed to start the printout.
