Interfaces

The printer is equipped with both a parallel and USB inter-
faces. Option serial interface board kit and network interface
card can also be installed. Various printing environment pa-
rameters such as the default emulation can be changed inde-
pendently on different interfaces by using the printer's menu
selection system. Select the interface to apply the changes in
the procedure described below.
NOTE
This interface selection described below does not select which
interface data will be received from. The printer automatically
selects an interface data to be received.

tional/high-speed mode. Normally, this interface is used un-
der the default setting Auto. For details, see
