Dip Switch Bank 2 - Epson TM-T88IV Technical Reference Manual

• The transmission speed can be set with a command or the memory switch utility.
(Setting values: 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200) The value set with a
command or the memory switch utility is enabled only when DIP switches 1-7 and 1-8
are on. For other settings, the value set with the DIP switches is enabled.
• Depending on print conditions such as print duty, print head temperature, and data
transmission speed, print speed is automatically adjusted, which can cause white lines
due to intermittent print (the motor sometimes stops). To avoid this, set the transmission
speed higher or keep the print speed constant by setting it lower. (See
