Auto Polling
Both the serial port and parallel port of this printer can be active at the same
time, i.e. the printer can simultaneously communicate with two PCs via
different ports. Note that there is no port contention, so if both PCs transmit
data at the same time data may become damaged in the receiving buffer.
