Use the following information if you are connecting to the printer’s 9-pin
serial port.

The communication parameters at the printer must match those at the host,
or you will not be able to communicate.

You can use the communication settings packet to set communication
parameters for your printer.

On MS-DOS computers, you can use the MODE command to set
communication values on your PC.

For example

MODE COM1:9600,N,8,1

This command sets your host to these communication values:

¨ a baud rate of 9600

¨ no parity

¨ 8 bit word length

¨ 1 stop bit
