Using Automatic Interface Selection; Using The Paper Memory Feature - Epson DFX-5000+ User Manual

Using Automatic Interface Selection

Automatic interface selection lets you connect computers to
more than one interface at a time. The printer receives data
from the interfaces on a first-come, first-serve basis. Once the
printer prints the data from one interface, it becomes idle after
10 or 30 seconds, depending upon the DIP-switch setting. Then
the printer receives and prints data from the first interface that
sends data.
Note:
Do not use your built-in serial interface if you have installed an
optional serial interface card (C82305*/C82306*); the optional card
overrides the built-in interface. If the DIP switch on the optional card
is set to disable, you can use the built-in serial interface.

Using the Paper Memory Feature

When you use multi-part forms that overlap, or forms with
labels on them, use the paper memory feature for better print
quality. This feature achieves better print quality by
automatically adjusting the gap between the print head and
the platen based upon the type of paper set in memory.
