Additional Notes:
1.) If multidrop is enabled, the printer will always start in "sleep mode". It must be sent a "wake-
up" command before it will respond to other commands.
2.) The host should not use hardware flow control when using RS-485.
3.) Do not send commands that will return data if more than one printer is enabled. The
printers will send their data at the same time and the host will receive garbled information.
4.) The ^D29 command may be used to display address and network information.
5.) Multidrop mode does not affect the front panel button operation.
