Ethernet Hotport
Gives the printer the ability to handle multiple data streams simultaneously. It
allows the printer to service hosts attached to the serial, Ethernet, and either the
coax or twinax ports as if they were the only interface connected.
Trickle Time: This functionality prevents an attached host from timing out. In
order to support this feature, the port has to be able to accept data from the host
and store it for future use. The selected value is the time that the printer waits
before getting the next byte of data from the host. Set the value to be less than the
host timeout value. If the value is too much shorter, the printer fills up its buffer
too fast. This function is not applicable for C/T Hotport.

Timeout:
This is the value used by the printer to time out from the current port
and check the other ports for data to print. When the printer has not received data
from the host after a certain period of time, it needs to Timeout in order to service
the other ports.
v 10 Sec (the default)
v 10 Sec - 60 Sec
Report
Status: When this option is enabled, faults are reported even if the fault is
not on the current active port. If the option is disabled, a fault on the printer is
reported only if it occurs on the active port.
