Communication
Mode
Sets the highest level of USB communication to be used when
the print server tries to establish the best level with the printer.
Automatic is the default setting, allowing the print server
to set the highest level it determines to function. The
highest level it attempts is 1284.4, a IEEE standard
protocol, a mode for printers and multi-function (All-in
One) devices that allows multiple channels of
simultaneous print, scan, and status communication.
Otherwise it attempts, in turn, one of the other modes, as
listed below. This parameter is used to limit the highest
setting to one of those below.
●
MLC is the next lower level, an HP-proprietary protocol for
Multiple Logical Channels, a mode for printers and
multi-function (All-in One) devices that allows multiple
channels of simultaneous print, scan, and status
communication.
●
Bidirectional
is the next lower level, two-way printer
communication, sending print data to the printing device
and returning status information from the printing device.
●
Unidirectional is the lowest level, one-way printer
communication from the computer to printing device.
●
Note that the current USB mode being used is reported on the
Jetdirect configuration page. (

LPD Queues
The LPD Queues parameters govern the operation of printing under the LPD (line
printer daemon) application. (For additional information on LPD printing and use of
the LPD queues, refer to the section on
LPD Printing .) Ten different named print
queues are available under LPD. Four of these queues are configured automatically
and their parameters can not be changed. The remaining six queues can be defined by
the user.
The six user-definable queues can be set up with character strings—such as job
