Control Panel

Packet mode

Make sure to select Auto when you print from Windows
applications using the printer driver included in the Printer
Software CD-ROM that comes with the printer. Turn this feature
off if you have connection troubles while printing from
applications based on other operating systems such as DOS.

Serial baud rate

This setting is available only when data is transferred via a serial
interface. Use this option to set the data transfer rate (baud) for
the serial interface. The baud rate is measured in bits per second
(bps). See your computer manual and software documentation
for the proper setting.

Serial parity

This setting is available only when data is transferred via a serial
interface. The parity bit is added to data and detects errors on the
data. When this option is set to None, the parity bit is not added
to data. When this option is set to Ignore, the parity is added to
data, but the printer receives the data even if an error is detected.

Serial data length

This setting is available only when data is transferred via a serial
interface. Set the data length of the serial interface to 8-bit or
7-bit

. See your computer manual and software documentation

for the proper setting.

Character table

You can select among various character tables including several
international character sets for the italic character table. This
setting is used when you print without using the printer driver.

When using the printer driver, change the settings on the printer
driver. For details, see “Printer Driver Settings Overview” on
page 58.
