5.2 Basic Printer Configuration Commands
The following commands are used to set up basic printer configuration. Most of these
commands are non-volatile, and therefore do not need to be present unless changes are
desired. Changes made with these commands will not take effect until the printer's power is
cycled "OFF" and "ON," or a "soft reset " command (^D32 command) is sent to the printer.
Note: When the printer is in the DEFAULT MODE, factory settings control printer operation.
This provides a starting point for re-establishing communication (factory default baud rate is
115,200) with the printer so that user settings can be reset should settings become
scrambled.
The statistics label printed when the printer is entered into the DEFAULT MODE reflects
current user settings, not factory default settings.
5.2.1
Baud Rate
This non-volatile command changes the serial port communication speed.
Note: Unless otherwise noted, the factory default baud setting is 115,200. The baud
rate will be temporarily set to 115,200 when the printer is in the Diagnostic Mode if
the user setting is different. The user set baud rate will resume after a "soft reset"
(^D32) or cycling the power to the printer.
