You can use one of these parameters:
ESPEED program parameters
If you do not include the parameter when you type the ESPEED
command, the program displays the command syntax and
parameter options.
The processor speed you set remains in effect until you press
RESET or turn off the computer, or until you change it to a
different setting.
Parking the Hard Disk Drive Heads
If you need to move your computer to a new location, you may
want to park the hard disk drive heads to protect the disk
during the move. You do this by running the HDDPARK
program. HDDPARK
moves
the drive’s read/write heads to a
region on the disk surface that does not contain data, and locks
them securely in place so you cannot damage the disk.
Many hard disk drives, including all the Epson drives,
automatically park their heads when you turn off the
computer. If your drive does not do this, or if you are not
sure that it does, be sure to run the HDDPARK program.
