Description

pp*_ecp
[ECP mode]

on/off

Enables/disables the ECP mode of
external print server models.
The ECP (Enhanced Capability Port)
mode can be used for quick and
compressed data transfer.

pp*_fast
[Fast mode]

on/off

Enables/disables the fast mode of
external print server models.
Using the fast mode, the print server
speed can be increased. With older
printer models, it is recommended to
disable the fast mode.

pp*_port_mode
[Port mode]

0 = Unidirectional
1 = Bidirectional

Specifies the communication mode
between the print server and the printer.

pp4_baudrate
[Baud rate]

150 / 300 / 600 / 1200 /
1800 / 2400 / 3600 /
4800 /7200 / 9600 /
19200 / 38400 / 57600 /
115200

Specifies the baud rate for data transfer.

pp4_parity
[Parity]

none
even
odd

Specifies the parity bit for the detection of
incorrectly transmitted bit sequences
(parity check).
none = no parity check
even = even parity check
odd = odd parity check

pp4_databits
[Data bits]

5
~
8

Specifies how many data bits will be
transferred in one data packet.

pp4_stopbits
[Stop bits]

1
~
2

Defines the stop bit.
Stop bits mark the end of a data transfer
unit and allow the recipient of a data
transfer to synchronize the data flow.

pp4_flowcontrol
[Flow control]

none
xon (xon/xoff)
dsr (DSR/DTR)
both

Defines the handshake procedure to
control the data flow between print server
and printer.
none = handshake is disabled
xon = software handshake is enabled
