◊ XON/XOFF Flow Control Determines whether or not
the print server should respond to software flow control
requests from the printer. When software flow control is
used, the printer will send an XOFF character (Control-S)
to the print server when its buffer is getting full, and an
XON character (XON) when the buffer is no longer full.
◊ Hardware Flow Control Determines whether or not the
print server should respond to hardware flow control
requests from the printer. When hardware flow control is
used, the printer will use the DTR, RTS, or both RS-232
control lines to control the print server's transmission of
data in order to prevent the printer's buffers from getting
full.
