Jumper Settings for HPI-3000
with Versatility S1 Firmware 961117-1

This firmware has the following capabilities:

  • Narrow carriage dot matrix (Epson protocol)
  • Wide carriage dot matrix (Epson protocol)
  • LaserJet (HP PCL protocol)
  • Options LaserJet algorithms:
    HPI-3000 Standard form-feed algorithm
    HPI-3000 Smart form-feed suppression algorithm

The three jumpers in the HPI-3000 are used to configure the unit's capabilities as follows:

Configuration

Left Jumper

Middle Jumper

Right Jumper

Epson - narrow (8")   Open   Open   Open
Epson - wide (13")   Open   Open   Installed
LaserJet   Installed  See form feed below   Open
LaserJet with Landscaped Text   Installed  See form feed below   Installed
Normal Form Feed (with LaserJet)     Open  
Smart Form Feed Suppression (with LaserJet)*     Installed  

* Smart Form Feed Suppression eliminates the blank page which is ejected by a laser
printer between two successive screen prints.  A blank page may still be ejected at
other times, since the HPI-3000 can't detect the buffer status of the laser printer, and
passes all other form feed commands from the Universal Station to the printer.
