component of your label production process.
The result is a fast an flexible label printing method, resembling a laser printer work
(resolution is 203 dpi). The printer can also print data from Windows applications (MS
Word, Notepad etc.), with the necessary driver installed.
Printer Management
Printer management is done by means of commands sent through the serial interface.
There are 8 supported baudrates, which are set by the position of several switches: 1200,
2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600 and 115200 bps, 8 bits, no control bit. The
printer uses a hardware protocol, but supports a Xon/Xoff protocol as well. The 1200 bps
speed is reserved for working with the local keyboard and label print without a computer
or preliminary loading of forms.

Pressing the LF button in Paper roll mode feeds paper.
Pressing the LF button in Label roll mode positions the printing mechanism at the
beginning of the next label.
If, when switching on the printer, you keep the LF button pressed down, the device will
print out a diagnostic information and remain in diagnostics mode. When in this mode,
the received data and printed data will be of hexadecimal type – it is not interpreted as
commands. To go back to normal mode, switch off the printer.
