M204 v5.7.2 Release Notes (Con’t)
slowmode Speed. Slow the data transfer rate.
vslowmode Speed. Slow the data transfer rate even further to
accomodate slower or older printer models.
With version 5.7 and higher, this command has been changed to:
set
portname
mode slow|cen|pc|fast|bb
where:
portname “
prn1” or “prn2” for the parallel ports.
slow Slow the data transfer rate.
cen Centronics mode. Use with
older impact printers
(i.e. dot matrix, line printers).
pc Default mode. Will work with most printers.
fast Increase the data transfer rate. Used with some
newer, faster printers like the HP 4 and 5 series.
bb Bit Bucket mode. Simulate an attached printer even
if one isn’t attached.
There is
no longer a setting to adjust the flow control method of the paral-
lel ports from busy mode to ACK mode. This is no longer necessary.
Using the
old command syntax for the parallel port will continue to work
with version 5.7 but this will eventually be phased out in future firmware
releases.
The following commands have been added to the “npsh” command shell:
store ifc wvln nwid
networkid
This command assigns a particular networkid (in the range of 0100 -
FFFF hexadecimal) to the M204’s connected WaveLAN card. Both the
network ID and the frequency must be the same between any device the
M204 tries to communicate with using the wireless network.
set sysinfo module [-]novell [-]appletalk [-]netbios
Prior to version 5.7.2, only the Novell and AppleTalk stack could be
enabled or disabled within the M204 allowing for easier memory alloca-
tion or network broadcast control. However, with version 5.7.2, the Net-
BIOS over TCP/IP protocol can now be controlled as well.
store tcpip tcp opts [-]disbufmgmt
Use this command to enable or disable receive buffer management on the
M204. The receive buffer controls how many simultaneous TCP connec-
tions can be allowed with the unit at one time. The only time you may
need to have receive buffer management turned off is if you notice short
pauses between the end of one print job and the start of the next job usu-
ally with LPR printing.
