EPSON Stylus CX4100/CX4200/CX4700/CX4800/DX4200/DX4800/DX4850 Revision A

1.3.2.3 Multi-slot Operations

 Overview

 There is only one type of card that can be used to simultaneously access both

a connected computer and the direct printing function.

 The slots have assigned priority to determine which slot will be accessed first

when cards are inserted in several slots at once.

 To select a card that has been inserted in a non-active slot, the card in the

active slot must first be removed.

• Direct printing:
Only the image files in the active slot are valid and have assigned frame
numbers. The number of images will not change if a card is also inserted in
a non-selected slot.

• Connection to computer (Windows):
Only one drive is displayed at a time as a “removable disk” and only the
card that is in the active slot can be accessed via the removable disk. A card
that has been inserted into a non-selected slot cannot be accessed.

• Connection to computer (Macintosh):
Only the card in the active slot can be mounted on the desktop. A card that
has been inserted into a non-selected slot cannot be mounted on the desktop.

 Details

 Access priority

The access priority among slots is assigned as:

1: CF (Micro Drive)

2: Smart Media/xD-Picture Card

3: Memory Stick (Memory Stick PRO)/SD (MMC)

 Slot selection when power is turned on

If cards are inserted in several slots when the power is turned on, the active
slot is determined by the priority ranks listed above.

Example: If Smart Media and Memory Stick are both inserted at power-on,

the Smart Media slot becomes the active slot.

 Slot selection after power is turned on

When a card is removed from the active slot, the slot with the next-highest
priority becomes the active slot (if a card has been inserted into it). There is no
need to re-insert any card before accessing it. If no slots contain any cards, the
highest-priority slot (CF Micro Drive) again becomes the active slot.
Cards can be removed from non-selected slots in any order.

Example: If a memory stick and CF card are inserted while Smart Media is

selected, CF becomes selected (active) once Smart Media is
removed.
