If you do not use your laser printer full time, you can share it with others.
This is often relevant in office environments where you use different printers

The interface has been designed with both a twinax port for the connection
to the twinax system and a parallel port to which you can connect a PC, etc.
If you use both ports on the interface, you will be able to set a timer to
control how long the interface will wait for data from one port before
accepting data from another port. You will also be able to code a string that
can be used to e.g. reset the printer or select a new font. The timer and
string to be sent when the port takes over will work on the port it was sent to.
If you code the string, it will be sent automati cally when you change from one
port to the other.

In order to specify the timeout for a specific input port, an FSL ( Function
Selection via the Line) sequence must be sent to the port in question. To do
this a temporary Escape (ESC) Character must be defined first. This is done
in the following way:
