3. Configuring the Printer
3.1 What is Configuring
This chapter describes how to use the operator panel and menu settings to set
up or configure your printer so that the printer and your computer system can
communicate correctly with each other.
Communication between the two requires that both the computer operating sy-
stem and the printer have the same communication settings or features. The
most important of those are:
S protocol,
S baud rate,
S word length,
S I/F type,
S parity.
You may also need to change some of the printer's other features depending on
your hardware and application requirements, for example:
S paper handling
S text processing.
The MENU mode allows you to access the configuration memory. All settings of
the printer are stored in this memory and can be printed. The possible settings
are discribed in detail on the following pages. A short view of all Menu settings
you will find in chapter 3.5 Menu Item Description, and a detail descriotion in
chapter 4 Explanation of Individual Menu Items.
The standard pameter setting can be printed by using the function PRINT
MENU. The following steps show which keys to use to start this printout.
