18. Q. How does the automatic interface switching work
ActionLaser 1000 and ActionLaser 1500?
A. The ActionLaser 1500 comes standard with parallel and serial interfaces,
allowing two users to share a single printer. By installing an optional third
interface, three users can share the printer. The ActionLaser 1000
supports a single user with the standard parallel interface. With an
optional interface installed, two users can share the printer. It is not
necessary to connect the ActionLasers through a network or switchbox to
activate the switching of the interface ports. Also, no control panel
functions need to be made. Optional emulations will require more
memory.
The printer can receive data from one interface while printing data from
the other interface. The first job received is the first to print. Each job
prints completely before another begins printing.
