Print a Label

Introduction

Intermec EasyCoder F2 – Installation & Operation Ed. 1
Intermec EasyCoder F2 – Installation & Operation Ed. 2
Obviously, what you really want to do with your EasyCoder F2
is to print a label, ticket or tag. If you are eager to get started, or
if you already are familiar with Intermec's range of EasyCoder
printers, follow the instructions in this chapter. If you are new to the
EasyCoder concept, bypass this chapter for the time being and read
the rest of the manual before returning here.
The subject of this chapter is to help you produce a label within
minutes from unpacking your printer and to give you an idea of
how the Intermec Direct Protocol and the Intermec Fingerprint
programming language makes label design an easy task.
In addition to the Intermec Direct Protocol and the Intermec
Fingerprint programming language, Intermec also includes printer
drivers for various versions of Microsoft Windows. After having
selected the Windows Driver option in Intermec Shell, you can use
the EasyCoder F2 printer the same way as e.g. a laser printer and
produce printouts from any standard program in MS Windows.
Connecting Printer and Host
In the following examples we assume that you use an ASCII terminal
or a PC with a terminal program, e.g. Microsoft Terminal and the
standard RS 232C interface between the printer and the host.
The printer contains a powerful microprocessor which is controlled
by means of the Intermec Fingerprint programming language.
The connected PC is only used as a non-intelligent terminal for
sending instructions to the printer and to display the responses
from the printer on a screen.
Intermec provides communication cables for connecting the
printer to most PC computers. Also refer to Appendix 3 for wiring
diagrams.
