port.
•
Serial connection:
The printer must be connected to the host; the parameter INTERF.PARAM. >
Interface must be set on RS232 or RS485.
1. Start MS-DOS.
2. Set the transmission parameters used by the printer with the MS-DOS
Command Mode.
Example of printer settings:
– Baud rate: 19200
– Data bits: 8
– Parity: none
– Stop Bits: 1
– Data synch.: RTS/CTS
DOS-Command: mode com2 19200 8 n 1
(if com2 is the serial port)
3. Press Online to start the receive test.
4. Send any file to the printer, for example:
copy anyfile.txt com2
You see:

test. The test is complete when the file size at the printer matches the size
visible in the MS-DOS window. Otherwise, transmission errors occurred.
