DATA STREAMS
The data streams for X-On/X-Off and Ready/Busy flow control are constructed in the same way
as they are for Ready/Busy flow control (<ESC>A . . Job#1 . . <ESC>Z<ESC>A . . Job#n . .
<ESC>Z). An example of this would be: <ESC>A . . Job#1 . . <ESC>Z. All characters are in
ASCII.
UNIVERSAL SERIAL BUS (USB) INTERFACE
The Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface is a Plug-In Interface Module that can be installed by
the user. It requires a driver (shipped with each printer that has the interface installed) that must
be loaded on your PC and the PC must be configured to support USB peripherals using Windows
98 or above. Details for loading the USB driver are contained in the USB Interface Manual that is
shipped with each printer with a USB Optional interface installed. Up to 127 devices may be
connected to a USB port using powered hubs.
LOCAL AREA NETWORK (LAN) OPTIONAL INTERFACE
A Local Area Network (LAN) interface is a Plug-In Interface Module that can be installed by the
user. It requires a driver shipped with each printer that has the interface installed. The driver
must be loaded on your PC and the PC must be configured to run one of the supported network
protocols using a 10/100BaseT LAN connection. Details for loading the LAN driver are contained
in the LAN Interface Manual that is shipped with each printer with a LAN Optional interface
installed.
