2.3.3 Connecting a printer
A printer with a serial or parallel interface can be connected to the
RS232 interface for printing out reports (e. g. parameter report).
Printers with the following printer emulation can be connected:
IBM
IBM Proprinter and printers with IBM emulation
Epson
EPSON printers and printers with EPSON emulation
Seiko
Seiko printer DPU-411
Citizen
Citizen printer IDP560 RS
HP
HP printers and printers with HP PCL3 emulation
If you wish to connect a different printer then you must ensure that it
can emulate one of the printer modes supported by the Sample Proc-
essor.
Printers with a parallel interface require a serial/parallel converter (e.g.
2.145.0300) and the 6.2125.020 Cable.
The Sample Processor must be switched off before a printer is con-
nected to the RS232 interface!
The interface parameters are entered in the configuration menu under
"
>RS232 settings
".
The following table provided information about connecting some se-
lected printers.
