    KSSM emulation. Taking Care Of Your Printer Your printer will produce high print quality jobs if it is well taken care of. Periodic cleaning, handling the printer properly, and using the correct printer supplies such as paper and ribbons ensures optimum performance. Chapter 7 explains how to clean the printer, and printer supplies are listed in Appendix A.

  • Page 12: Protocols And Emulations

    Protocols And Emulations A protocol is a set of rules governing the exchange of information between the printer and its host computer. These rules consist of codes that manipulate and print data and allow for machine-to-machine communication. A printer and its host computer must use the same protocol. As used in this manual, protocol and emulation mean the same thing.

  • Page 13: Setting Up The Printer

    The printer must be connected to a power outlet that supplies 88 to 135 Volts AC or 178 to 271 Volts AC at 50 to 60 Hz. The printer automatically senses and adjusts itself to conform to the correct voltage range.

  • Page 39: The Configuration Menus

    You may change a printer parameter setting, such as line spacing or forms length, either by pressing keys on the control panel or by sending emulation control codes in the data stream from a host attached to the printer. The control panel allows you to configure the printer’s resident set of configuration menus.

  • Page 40: Default And Custom Configurations

    Default And Custom Configurations A configuration consists of a group of parameter settings, such as line spacing, forms length, etc. Your printer provides a fixed default configuration and allows you to define several custom configurations for use with particular print jobs. The factory default configuration can be loaded, but it cannot be altered.
