Print File List

. Prints a summary of the files stored in flash memory and

several statistics on File System usage.

IMPORTANT

Do not turn the printer off until it has completely rebooted and is either
back online or offline.

Set Sharing

This option allows character sets to be shared between the active LP+
protocol and the active IGP emulation.

Changing characters sets in LP+ causes the active IGP to change to the
same character set if the selected set exists in IGP. If the active IGP has no
access to the selected set, no changes are made. Selecting a new character
set in the active IGP causes the LP+ to change to the same character set if
the selected character set exists in the active LP+ protocol. Not all sets are
shared between emulations in the Standard group of character sets. As a
result, selecting a set in the Standard group of LP+ or IGP emulation may or
may not cause the other emulation to have the same set.

NOTE:

The Set Sharing front panel option has no effect on the LP+ builds.
The option only applies to the builds with IGP.

Shuttle Timeout

The amount of time the shuttle continues moving after no data is received. If
your host is slow, setting the number to a higher value will prevent the printer
from spending time shuttling up and down between data bursts.

Slow Paper Slew

Disable

(default). The paper will slew and stack paper at maximum

speed.

Enable

. Causes the paper to stack at a slower rate. This ensures that

certain forms will stack neatly.

Alarm

On

(default). An audible alarm sounds (3 beeps) when a fault occurs,

such as a paper jam.

Cont. Beep

. A continuous audible alarm sounds when a fault occurs,

which can be stopped by pressing CLEAR.

Off

. No audible alarm will sound.

Power Saver Time

The time interval you specify for this parameter sets the amount of idle time
before the printer goes into Power Saver mode. When Instant is chosen, the
printer goes into Power Saver mode as soon as it is able to stop the shuttle
properly. The time allotted to perform this function depends upon the shuttle
timeout value which can be set in the menu.

NOTE:

Power Saver Mode will not be shown on the control panel even
though the function still exists. Sending a print job to the printer will
turn off Power Saver mode.
