5. Communications

Transmitting data from the computer to the W660/W680 is by
way of the parallel interface or the serial interface. The printer
automatically senses the interface through which data is being
sent. When the computer uses the W660/W680’s parallel inter-
face no communication settings are required.

When the serial interface is used, the W660/W680 Communica-
tions menu settings must be configured to match the computer
settings. Configure the computer to use either the XON/XOFF or
DTR handshaking settings to communicate with the W660/
W680. Use the following sub menus to change the W660/W680
serial communications. A. Baud Rate, B Parity, C. Word Length
and D. Line Termination.

3. The LCD displays “LINES/ADDRESS + (MORE) or –

(LESS)”.

The range is from 1 to 66 lines. To select the range, press
the + button (MORE) or – button (LESS). The printer
can print an address which is typically between 3 and 8
lines.

4. Press the Menu button to back out of the menu until the

printer displays OFF LINE. Then, press the On Line
Button to enable the printer.

NOTE: To verify that the computer and the W660/W680 are
communicating, with the printer on-line, type DIR>PRN
