553-3202-210 Standard October 1998
The HP Rugged Writer is a dot-matrix printer. This printer can be
configured in HP PCL mode, which provides ISO Latin-1 international
support as well as higher-quality graphics, or in Epson mode, which
provides faster printing of reports. Table 98 shows the correct DIP switch
settings for use with the CCR application.
CAUTION
Risk of hardware damage
!
Never use pencils or other graphite tools when changing
the position of the DIP switches. Flakes of graphite can
enter the switch and short-circuit the printer.
