1 Use the to change printer settings affecting jobs sent to the printer through a network port (either Standard Network or Network Opt <x>). Select a menu item for more details: Job Buffering MAC Binary PS 1 Network Buffer Network <x> Setup NPA Mode PCL SmartSwitch PS SmartSwitch Note: Values marked by an asterisk are the factory default settings.

2 Job Buffering 2 To temporarily store jobs on the printer hard disk before printing. Off* On Auto Does not buffer jobs to the hard disk. Buffers print jobs to the hard disk. Buffers print jobs only if the printer is busy processing data from another input port. Note: Changing the Job Buffering menu item automatically resets the printer.

3 MAC Binary PS 3 To configure the printer to process Macintosh binary PostScript print jobs. On Off Auto* Printer processes raw binary PostScript print jobs from computers using the Macintosh operating system. Note: This setting often causes Windows print jobs to fail. Printer filters PostScript print jobs using standard protocol. Printer processes print jobs from computers using either Windows or Macintosh operating systems.

4 Network Buffer 4 To configure the size of the network input buffer. Auto* 3K to maximum size allowed Printer automatically calculates the Network Buffer size (recommended setting). User specifies the Network Buffer size. The maximum size depends on the amount of memory in your printer, the size of the other link buffers, and whether Resource Save is set to On or Off. To maximize the range for the Network Buffer size, disable or reduce the size of the parallel, serial, infrared, LocalTalk, and USB buffers. Note: Changing the Network Buffer menu item automatically resets the printer. See also: Resource Save

5 Network <x> Setup 5 To configure an internal print server. Values for this menu item are supplied by the specific print server. Select the menu item to see the available values. Note: Refer to the documentation on the drivers CD for more information.

6 NPA Mode 6 To specify whether the printer performs the special processing required for bidirectional communication, following the conventions defined in the Network Printing Alliance (NPA) Protocol. On Off Auto* Printer performs NPA processing. If data is not in NPA format, it is rejected as bad data. Printer does not perform NPA processing. Printer examines the data to determine the format and then processes it appropriately. Note: Changing this menu item automatically resets the printer.

7 PCL SmartSwitch 7 To configure the printer so it automatically switches to PCL emulation when a print job received through the network port requires it, regardless of the default printer language. On* Off See also: Printer examines data on the network interface and selects PCL emulation if the data indicates that is the required printer language. Printer does not examine the incoming data. The printer uses PostScript emulation to process the job if PS SmartSwitch is On, or uses the default printer language specified in the Setup Menu if PS SmartSwitch is Off.

8 PS SmartSwitch 8 To configure the printer so it automatically switches to PostScript emulation when a print job received through the network port requires it, regardless of the default printer language. On* Off See also: Printer examines data on the network interface connection and selects PostScript emulation if the data indicates that is the required printer language. Printer does not examine the incoming data. The printer uses PCL emulation to process the job if PCL SmartSwitch is On, or uses the default printer language specified in the Setup Menu if PCL SmartSwitch is Off.
