Configuring the Serial Port

The 4100 printer's serial port settings should match those of your host
computer or network controlling device. If you need to change the default
settings, refer to the following tables. Use a small screwdriver or other
suitable tool to move the DIP switches to the desired settings. The switches
should click securely into the 1 (ON) or 0 (OFF) positions. The printer must
then be turned off and on for the new switch settings to take effect.
