Star (RS-422)
The part number is C06244; the adapter is C06243;
and the cable is C06242. This printer works with both
console CPU boards, C04832 and C05836.
This printer does not allow the use of a PIN pad. On
CPU board C05836, set the console printer/pad
configuration to none.

program, menu 3 (parameters).
The Star printer has four DIP switch banks:
DIP Switch Bank 1. Positions 1-4 and 6 are always
closed; positions 7 and 8 are always open. Position 5
governs the height of the line feed: open=1/8 of an
inch; closed (default)=1/6 of an inch.
DIP Switch Bank 2. All 8 positions on DIP switch
bank 2 should always be closed, with the possible
exception of position 4, which sets the paper width:
closed (default)=3-inch or 3.25-inch paper; open=2.5-
inch paper.
DIP Switch Bank 3. Positions 1-4 and 6-8 should
always be closed; position 5 should always be open.
DIP Switch Bank 4. Switch 4, which has 4 positions,
sets the address of the printer, as shown in the
following chart. Note that the Star printer can never
be address 4.
