Read-back Port The AXIS 5470e/570/670e supports bi-directional printing. The
information from the printer is read back on the parallel port when the
parameter Read Back Port (PRx_IN) has the default setting AUTO.
However, it is required that the printer also supports bi-directional
printing.
Example: Follow the instructions below to disable the bi-directional
communication for logical printer PR1:
1. Click admin and the Logical Printer Settings button.
2. Select the PR1 tab.
3. Set the Read Back Port parameter to NONE.
4. Click OK.
Adding Strings Before
and After Print Jobs
These string functions provide a way to send printer control
commands before and after each print job. They may be specified
individually for each logical printer.
All strings are entered as hexadecimal byte values.
Example: Assume that the logical printer PR5 is configured as a PostScript
printer and that you want to append the PostScript End of File
character (hex
04) after each print job.
Follow the instructions below to add a string after the print job:
1. Click admin and the Logical Printer Settings button.
2. Select the PR5 tab.
3. Enter the string 04 in the String After Print Job text field.
4. Click OK.
