The "INTERFACE SETTINGS" are used to monitor 
and set limits for the data that is sent to the machine’s 
parallel port, USB port, or network port. The settings 
consist of the following programs:

● HEXADECIMAL DUMP MODE

● I/O TIMEOUT

● PARALLEL PORT EMULATION SWITCHING

● USB PORT EMULATION SWITCHING

● NETWORK PORT EMULATION SWITCHING

● PORT SWITCHING METHOD

● ENABLE PARALLEL PORT

● ENABLE USB PORT

● ENABLE NETWORK PORT

● ENABLE ECP

This program is used to print out the print data from the 
computer in hexadecimal and in the corresponding text 
characters (based on ASCII code). This allows you to 
check whether or not print data is being correctly sent 
from the computer.
This program is initially disabled (factory default 
setting).

Example of output in hexadecimal dump mode (A4 
portrait)

This program is used to set the amount of time until I/O 
timeout when waiting for print data.
In the event that the set amount of time elapses 
without the port receiving any print data, the I/O 
timeout function temporarily breaks the port 
connection and intiates automatic port selection or 
makes the port begin waiting for the next set of print 
data.
The factory default settings are as follows:

• 180 (sec.)
• When the PRINTER EXPANSION KIT is installed: 

60 (sec.)

This program is used to set the printer language when 
the machine is connected using the parallel port.
The factory default setting is "AUTO".

This program is used to set the printer language when 
the machine is connected using the USB port. The 
selections are the same as for "PARALLEL PORT 
EMULATION SWITCHING".
The factory default setting is "PCL*".
* When the PS3 expansion kit is installed, the setting is 

"AUTO".

This program is used to set the printer language when 
the machine is connected using the USB port. The 
selections are the same as for "PARALLEL PORT 
EMULATION SWITCHING". 
The factory default setting is "AUTO".

AUTO

The printer language is 
automatically changed to match 
the data received from the 
computer.

PostScript
(When the PS3 
EXPANSION 
KIT is installed)

The data received from the 
computer is printed using 
PostScript.
