Baud Rate

Sets the baud rate of the serial interface in the printer. Baud rate is
the speed at which serial data is transferred between the host
computer and the printer. The choices for the RS-232 and RS-422
interfaces are 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600,
and 115200 Baud. The default is 9600 Baud.
NOTE: If you select a baud rate that is greater than 19200, you
