Description
Selects the size of the interface buffer.
Selects the type of interface to the com-
puter.
AUTO: All interfaces are ready for com-
munication. The printer communicates
with the interface from which it first
receives data. The interface is active until
the input buffer becomes empty.
Sets printer to offline or online mode
after paper empty.
Selects the transmission mode of the
parallel interface.
Behavior of the printer after receiving an
Init/Prime signal.
The baud rate is in bits per second.
Select the same baud rate as that used by
your computer or modem.
Parity setting; select the same word par-
ity setting that is used by your computer
or modem.
None causes transmission in both direc-
tions without parity bit. Even: The bytes
are checked to ensure they have even
parity. Odd: The bytes are checked to
ensure they have odd parity.
Word Length setting; select the same
word length setting that is used by your
computer or modem.
8 bit: 8 Data bits per data byte. 7 bit: 7
Data bits per data byte.
Word Length setting; select the same
word length setting that is used by your
computer or modem.
Selcts 1 or 2 stop bit per data byte.
Selects the type of protocol, i.e. a certain
set of rules and procedures for ensuring
error-free data exchanges between com-
puter and printer.
