Cisco Systems C9800HDTN User Manual

You must enable the parallel port in order to enter the Parallel Port Setup options and 
print to the parallel port.

Port Timeout in Seconds

 

5–60 [5]

This option appears only if Enable Parallel Port is set to Yes. Your setting determines 
how long (in seconds) the Fiery waits without receiving data from the parallel port 
before deciding that the current job is complete. Until the timeout, the Fiery cannot 
receive new jobs through the parallel port, but it can continue to receive network print 
jobs.

Ignore EOF Character

 

Yes/No [Yes]

This option appears only if Enable Parallel Port is set to Yes. This option specifies that 
the Fiery should ignore end-of-file (EOF) messages in a file. This option must be set to 
Yes to print PostScript files in binary format (not ASCII); under normal circumstances, 
it should be set to No. When this option is set to Yes, the Fiery uses the parallel port 
timeout value to determine when the end of the file has been reached. If you experi-
ence printing problems, set this option to No.

Admin Setup

 

Parallel Setup

 

Select Yes if you want to print through the parallel port. You can connect a single 
Windows computer to the parallel port and print directly to the Fiery.
