I/F TYPE (Interface Type)

The following types are available:
S PARALLEL / RS232
S PARALLEL / RS422
S PARALLEL
In case the PARALLEL / RS232 or PARALLEL / RS422 interface type is

selected the printer switches automatically between the parallel and

serial interface. The first data received at the port determine which

interface port becomes active. The other interface port will be closed so

that only one interface is active at a time (for detailed information see

Appendix A Interface Description).

The factory setting for the interface type are: PARALL./RS232, 8 bit word

length, 9600 baud rate, even parity bit, DTR protocol, ignore DSR+CTS,

and 8 Kbyte Buffer.

S

WORD LENGTH

Number of bits that represent a word; values are 7 or 8 bit

S

BAUD RATE (Only indicated if the serial interface is selected)

Controls the speed of data transfer. Possible transfer rates are: 600,

1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200 or 38400 bps.

S

PARITY BIT (Only indicated if the serial interface is selected)

The data transfer will be checked by an even or odd parity bit. The values

are: EVEN, ODD, or NONE.

S

PROTOCOL (Only indicated if the serial interface is selected)

Selectable are: DTR, XON/XOFF, or XON/XOFF+DTR.
