-Bidirectional transmission
When bidirectional transmission is
enabled, information such as paper
size and feed orientation is automati-
cally sent to the computer. You can
also check machine status from your
computer.
• Bidirectional transmission is sup-
ported under
Windows 95/98/Me,
Windows 2000/XP, and Windows
NT 4.0.
• When bidirectional transmission is
running, machine status and infor-
mation can be viewed by opening
the printer driver screen.
To support bidirectional transmis-
sion, the following conditions are re-
quired:
❖
❖❖
❖ When connecting with a parallel cable
• The computer must support bi-
directional transmission.
• The machine must be set to bidi-
rectional transmission.
• The machine parallel port and
computer parallel port must be
connected using a parallel inter-
face cable that supports bidirec-
tional transmission.
Note
❒ In Windows 95/98/Me, [Enable
bi-directional support for this print-
er] must be selected in [Spool Set-
tings] on the [Details] tab in
RPCS™ printer driver.
❒ In Windows 2000/XP, or Win-
dows NT 4.0, [Enable bidirectional
support] must be selected, and
[Enable printer pooling] must not
be selected on the [Ports] tab in

❖
❖❖
❖ When connecting with the network
• The machine must be set to bidi-
rectional transmission.

cluded on the CD-ROM must be
installed.
One of the following conditions
must also be satisfied as well as the
two requirements mentioned
above:
• The port for SmartNetMonitor
and TCP/IP must be used.
• The standard TCP/IP port is
used without changing the port
name (Windows 2000/XP).

Microsoft TCP/IP Print is used
(Windows NT 4.0).
• The IP address is included in
port name, if using IPP proto-
col.
