Setup Parameters

Serial Communication

The serial communication parameters control the communication
between the printer and the connected computer or other devices on the
serial port.
Note: The serial communication parameters have no effect on
parallel or EasyLAN communications.
Make sure the printer's communication parameters match the setup of
the connected device or vice versa. If the setup of the printer and the
setup of the host do not match, the response from the printer to host will
be garbled.

Baud Rate

The baud rate is the transmission speed in bits per second. There are 8
options:
• 1200
• 2400
• 4800
• 9600
• 19200
• 38400
• 57600
• 115200

Character Length

The character length specifi es the number of bits that will defi ne a char-
acter.
• 7
• 8

Parity

There are four options:
