Dell 5210n Mono Laser Printer User Manual page 64

NOTE: Changing the Network Buffer menu
item automatically resets the printer.
Mac Binary Configures the printer to process Macintosh
PS binary PostScript print jobs.
Standard USB and USB <x>
Use this menu selection to change printer settings affecting a Universal Serial Bus (USB) port (USB <x>).
Menu Purpose:
selection:
PCL Configures the printer so it automatically switches
SmartSwitch to PCL emulation when a print job received
through the USB port requires it, regardless of the
default printer language.
PS Configures the printer so it automatically switches
SmartSwitch to PostScript emulation when a print job received
through the USB port requires it, regardless of the
default printer language.
NPA Mode Specifies whether the printer performs the special
processing required for bidirectional
communication, following the conventions defined
in the Network Printing Alliance (NPA) Protocol.
NOTE: Changing this menu item automatically
resets the printer.
USB Buffer Configures the size of the USB input buffer.
NOTE: Changing the USB Buffer menu item
automatically resets the printer.
Mac Binary Configures the printer to process Macintosh binary
PS PostScript print jobs.
ENA Address Sets the USB port ENA Address.
ENA Netmask Sets the USB port ENA Netmask.
ENA Sets the USB port ENA Gateway.
Gateway
Parallel and Parallel <x>
Use this menu selection to change printer settings affecting jobs sent to the printer through a parallel port (either Std Parallel or Parallel <x>).
Menu Purpose:
selection:
PCL Configures the printer so it automatically switches to PCL
SmartSwitch emulation when a print job received through the parallel port
requires it, regardless of the default printer language.
PS Configures the printer so it automatically switches to
SmartSwitch PostScript emulation when a print job received through the
3K to maximum User specifies the Network Buffer size. The maximum size depends
size allowed on the amount of memory in the printer, the size of the other link
(1k increments) 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, and USB buffers.
On Printer processes raw binary PostScript print jobs from computers
using the Macintosh operating system.
NOTE: This setting often causes Windows print jobs to fail.
Off Printer filters PostScript print jobs using standard protocol.
Auto* Printer processes print jobs from computers using either Windows or
Macintosh operating systems.
Values:
On* Printer examines the data on the USB port and selects PCL emulation if
the data indicates that is the required printer language.
Off 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
On* Printer examines data on the USB interface and selects PostScript
emulation if the data indicates that is the required printer language.
Off 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
is Off.
Off Printer performs NPA processing. If data is not in NPA format, it is rejected
as bad data.
On Printer does not perform NPA processing.
Auto* Printer examines the data to determine the format, and then processes it
appropriately.
Disabled Job buffering is disabled. Any jobs already buffered on the disk are printed
before normal processing of incoming jobs resumes.
Auto* Printer automatically calculates the USB Buffer size (recommended
setting).
3K to User specifies the USB Buffer size. The maximum size depends on the
maximum amount of memory in the printer, the size of the other link buffers, and
size allowed whether Resource Save is set to On or Off. To maximize the range for the
USB Buffer size, disable or reduce the size of the parallel, serial, and
network buffers.
Off Printer processes raw binary PostScript print jobs from computers using
the Macintosh operating system.
NOTE: This setting often causes Windows print jobs to fail.
On Printer filters PostScript print jobs using standard protocol.
Auto* Printer processes print jobs from computers using either Windows or
Macintosh operating systems.
