Page 8: Setting The Head Gap
2.2.2 Setting the Head Gap The SP2200 is designed to accept forms up to a thickness of .024 inches (0.609 mm). The head gap adjust- ment lever (Figure 2-4) can be set to print up to 5-part forms. The six detents allow a head gap range of .004 to .024 inches in .004-inch increments. -

Page 15: Connecting To Host Devices
Only ASCII-encoded data is supported by the SP2200. The SP2200 can be connected to host devices using other data formats, but a protocol converter must be used to convert the data to ASCII encoding before the SP2200 can process the data. -

Page 21: Configuring The Sp2200
4.0 Configuring the SP2200 The SP2200 is configured using three banks of DIP switches, labeled S1, S2, and S3, on the back of the unit. Each bank contains 8 switches, numbered 1 through 8. Switches are referred to by bank and switch number;... -

3-8 should be set off to prevent accidental changes to the programmed information. This switch has no effect on the use of the PRINT button. Communications Configuration Switches Figure 4-3 shows the DIP switches used to configure communications for the SP2200. These switches are described in the following sections. OFF = 0... -
Page 23: Handshaking
This switch is used for duplex serial communications only. 4.2.4 Toledo Interface Mode Switch 3-2, when set on, enables the Toledo interface mode when connecting the SP2200 to Toledo indicators. This mode allows the SP2200 to communicate with Toledo indicators and to format weight information in both standard and weight extraction modes. -
Page 24: Form Feed
4.3.2 Form Feed Switch 1-7 controls form feed direction. When set on, this switch causes the SP2200 to reverse the feed direction, pulling forms from the rear of the printer toward the front. 4.3.3 Eat <LF> after <CR> Switch 2-1 is used in standard input mode to convert double-spaced data to a single-spaced format. If the host device sends an ASCII carriage return (CR, hex 0D, decimal 13) followed by a line feed (LF, hex 0A, decimal 10), setting this switch on causes the printer to ignore the line feed control code. -

Page 26: Setting The Time And Date
Setting the Time and Date If the time and date module is installed in the SP2200, you can set the time and date using either the switch module (if installed) or a serial input device such as a PC or ASCII terminal. -
Page 27: Setting Time And Date Using A Serial Command String
4.5.2 Setting Time and Date Using a Serial Command String If you have a PC or ASCII terminal attached to the SP2200, you can set the time and date using a serial command string. The format you use to enter the date and time must match the format set by DIP switch 2-6 (0=International, 1=US format). -
Page 28: Setting Id Codes
Setting ID Codes If the switch module is installed in the SP2200, you can enter ID codes to be printed with weight data when the printer is in weight extraction mode. ID codes must be 8 digits in length and use only the digits 0 through 9 and the following characters: colon, period, and space. -
Page 29: Setting An Incrementing Id Code
Example 2: You can set an ID code to increment from any value entered as a constant ID code. For example, to set the SP2200 to increment through values of 100 to 99999, do the following: 1) Enter the starting value as a constant ID code: Because the starting value is also incremented, you must enter a value of one less than the first value to be printed. -
Page 30: Stopping Id Code Incrementing
You can use the switch module to set the number of line feeds between each print request handled by the SP2200. This function can be used to control spacing and align printing on labels or continuous forms. To set the number of line feeds between prints, set DIP switch 3-8 on to enable the switch module. -

Fuse Replacement If the SP2200 will not power on, use the following procedures to check the line fuses, power supply fuse, then the 5 volt supply fuse on the CPU board. 6.3.1 Line Fuses To replace line fuses in the SP2200, do the following: 1. -
Page 35: Ac Power Supply Current Limiting Fuse
6.3.2 AC Power Supply Current Limiting Fuse The SP2200 uses a 5A fuse to limit current output of the power supply. If the line fuses are good but the SP2200 does not power up when connected to the power source, use the following procedure to check the power supply fuse: 1. - Page 36 Table 6-2.
