Printer examines the data on the USB port
and selects PCL emulation if the data
indicates that is the required printer
language.
Printer does not examine the incoming
data. The printer uses PostScript emulation
to process the job if PS SmartSwitch is On,
or uses the default printer language
specified in the Setup Menu if PS
SmartSwitch is Off.
Printer examines data on the USB interface
and selects PostScript emulation if the data
indicates that is the required printer
language.
Printer does not examine the incoming
data. The printer uses PCL emulation to
process the job if PCL SmartSwitch is On,
or uses the default printer language
specified in the Setup Menu if PCL
SmartSwitch is Off.
The printer will not perform any NPA
processing.
All data received by the printer must be in
NPA packets. Any non-packet data
received will be rejected as bad.
Printer examines the incoming data to
determine the format. If the incoming data
is not NPA packets, the information is
passed to the printer as non-NPA.
Job buffering is disabled. Any jobs already
buffered on the disk are printed before
normal processing of incoming jobs
resumes.
Printer automatically calculates the USB
Buffer size (recommended setting).
User specifies the USB Buffer size. The
maximum size depends on the amount of
memory in the printer, the size of the other
link buffers, and whether Resource Save is
set to On or Off. To maximize the range for
the USB Buffer size, disable or reduce the
size of the parallel and network buffers.
