MODE ASSIGN
Use this option to select the printer mode for each interface you
are using. The default is LJ-3. For more information on each
printer mode, see the appendixes. After MODE ASSIGN appears,
press once to see the following display:
The printer lists these options when the corresponding identity card
is installed.
When you select the one of the intelligent emulation switch (IES)
settings, the printer switches automatically between the two
indicated modes, depending on the data it receives. However,
sometimes the display shows READY and the name of the mode
used most recently. During this timeout period the printer can use
only the indicated mode. Do not send data in the other mode until
the timeout is over, which is indicated by the display showing
both modes.
Note:
When you are using a program you developed that sends
PostScript files, be sure that data is followed by a Ctrl-D ( ^ D).
Otherwise, the printer does not switch the emulation mode
properly with the Intelligent Emulation Switch Feature.
