Parallel Port Setup options
You must enable the parallel port in order to enter the Parallel Port Setup options and
print to the parallel port.
Parallel Port Setup
Enable Parallel Port
Yes/No [No]
Select Yes if you want to print through the parallel port. You can connect a single
Windows computer to the parallel port and print directly to the Fiery X3e.
Port Timeout in Seconds
5–60 [5]
This option appears only if Enable Parallel Port is set to Yes. Your setting determines
how long (in seconds) the Fiery X3e waits without receiving data from the parallel port
before deciding that the current job is complete. Until the timeout, the Fiery X3e
cannot receive new jobs through the parallel port, but it can continue to receive
network print jobs.
Ignore EOF Character
Yes/No [Yes]
This option appears only if Enable Parallel Port is set to Yes. This option specifies that
the Fiery X3e should ignore end-of-file (EOF) messages in a file. This option must be
set to Yes to print PostScript files in binary format (not ASCII); under normal
circumstances, it should be set to No. When this option is set to Yes, the Fiery X3e uses
the parallel port timeout value to determine when the end of the file has been reached.
If you experience printing problems, set this option to No.
If you use a PC with Windows XP or Windows 2000, printing over the parallel

port may succeed but you may need to install and use a utility that fixes ECP mode.
Without the fix, ECP mode on those platforms runs very slowly. Contact your
authorized service support center for more information.
