Reported Machine Type
For printer emulation, this option tells the RCI Request System Configuration command
(Command 51) the type of printer that is in use. Select the 5900 printer (the printer returns
the value 11), the 6200 printer (the printer returns the value 6), the 6800 printer (the printer
returns the value 8), or the 7300 printer (the printer returns the value 7).
Aux Photocell Mapped To
This option controls how the standard 8900 trigger conditions are linked to the Aux
Photocell trigger used by the RCI protocol. The default setting for the 8900 printer is
Leading Edge (the other options are: Trailing Edge, Active, Inactive, Continuous, and
Manual).

available options are:
