Turn the bidirectional parallel communication

This setting allows the printer to send status
readback messages to the computer. (Turning
the parallel advanced functions on might slow
language switching.)

Select the speed at which data is transmitted
to the printer.
YES
: The printer accepts faster parallel
communications used for connections with
newer computers.
NO

communications used for connections with
older computers.

300
Select the I/O timeout period in seconds. (I/O
timeout refers to the time, measured in
seconds, that the printer waits before ending a
print job.)
This setting allows you to adjust timeout for
best performance. If data from other ports
appear in the middle of your print job, increase
the timeout value.
