Background information
Bidirectional communication
Bidirectional communication (bidi) describes the printer's ability to respond to data inquiries from
your computer and report back information, such as what type of paper is available or what
accessories are connected to the printer. If a printer does not have this capability (no bidirectional
mode), it can only accept commands for the host and cannot report information back.
Bidirectional communication depends on the network operating system you have and the way in
which your printer is connected to the network.
Euro character
The Euro is the name for the currency of the European Union (EU). Use of this unit was launched
on 1 January 1999. It has changed the way business is conducted in Europe and affected every
company and industry on the continent. It is vital that companies understand and prepare for the
changes the Euro has brought and will continue to bring.
HP has equipped the HP Color LaserJet 4550 printer series with the Euro characters designed for
each of their internal fonts. The HP Color LaserJet 4550 printer series is currently enabled to print
the Euro character in Windows 9x and Windows NT 4.0. HP is committed to maximizing
document portability through supporting and promoting Euro symbol standards.
