Setting Up the Printer
Description
Intermec EasyCoder F2 – Installation & Operation Ed. 1
The setup is used to control the printer in regard of serial communi-
cation, paper feed and print speed, and to specify which type of
paper is loaded in the printer.
Check the list of default setup values below to see if the printer's
setup matches your requirements. If not, you will have to change
the setup, which can be done manually via the printer's built-in key-
board, remotely from the host computer, or by reading a bar code
containing setup data with the optional EasySet bar code wand. The
setup may also be changed, partially or completely, by certain ap-
plication programs.
• In the Setup Mode:
- Press the <Setup> key on the printer's built-in keyboard to
enter the Setup Mode.
- Select the Setup option in Intermec Shell to enter the Setup
Mode.
- Execute the Intermec Fingerprint SETUP instruction to enter
the Setup Mode.
See chapter 7 "Setup Mode" in this manual.
• In Intermec Shell:
- Use Terminal Setup option to change the setup remotely from
the host.
Note that Intermec Shell automatically sets up the printer in
regard of communication when an application is selected.
See chapter 8 "Intermec Shell" in this manual.
• In Intermec Fingerprint:
- Use Setup strings to change individual setup parameters
remotely from the host.
- Use Setup files to create sets of setup parameters remotely
from the host.
