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. If CT is installed and active, choosing a
character set in the CT activates that character set in the active IGP and LP+
protocols. (These changes will not be visible on the front panel.) If Set Sharing
is not selected, only the LP+ will share the CT's character set.

Switching host interfaces from CT to Centronics when the Set Sharing is
enabled will cause the LP+ character set to be activated to the same
character set of the active IGP, if possible.

In a non-CT system, 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+ and CT/
LP+ builds. The option only applies to the builds with IGP.

This option is not available in the PCL-II or LG emulation.

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.
