Configuration via Serial Port
1. TeraTerm (located on the Accessories CD-ROM) is a
Windows based configuration utility that allows the user
to make changes to the existing printer setup via a direct
connection to the host serial port, or any port with a
Windows driver assigned to it. See section 3.3 for
installation and configuration information.
2. After the application is started the following window will
appear. Navigate to the Ports>Network Settings> menu.
The default settings for the "Tera Term" application are set to use: COM1, 9600 baud, 8 data bits, No

parity, 1 stop bit. Be sure your printer matches these settings. If you must change the COM port
select 'New Connection" from the "File" drop down menu within the Tera Term application.
