Host Interface

The Host Interface menu enables you to select and configure interfaces between the printer and your host computer. Options include:

•

Auto Switching

(default). This menu selects which host I/O is currently active (see page 45).

Other selections include Centronics, Serial, IEEE 1284, USB, and Ethernet. Note that selections will only appear if installed.

•

Parallel Hotport

. This submenu controls the parameters for hot porting with the Centronics or

IEEE 1284 interface.

•

Serial Hotport

. This submenu controls the parameters for hot porting with the serial interface.

•

USB Hotport

. This submenu controls the parameters for hot porting with the USB interface.

•

Ethernet Hotport

. This submenu controls the parameters for hot porting with the Ethernet interface.

19

Emulation

•

Ser/Par Emul

. This parameter allows you to define which set of printer control commands will be emulated for data received on the Serial and Parallel ports. Tally ANSI is the default selection. This menu also enables you to define the form length, characters per inch (cpi) and lines per inch (lpi).

When a new emulation setting is entered through the Printer Control Panel, emulation dependent parameters in the Current configuration changes to match the default settings for the elected emulation. The following table lists those parameters by emulation:

. Used to select the emulation attached to the Ethernet port when using the Ethernet interface. The possible selections are the same as the Ser/Par Emul option.

•

Length (lines)

. To define the length of your form in lines, select a form length from 1 to 255. The default is 66 lines.

•

Length (inches)

. To define the length of your form in inches, select a form length from 0.1 to 25.5 inches. The default is 11.0 inches.

•

CPI

. This parameter allows you to select characters per inch (CPI) settings. The possible selections are 5, 6, 6.67, 7.5, 8.33, 8.57, 10, 12, 13.33, 15, 16.67, 17.14, and 20. The default is 10 CPI.
