Introduction

The laser printer has many extremely desirable features. It was designed to make a contribution to a

cleaner environment as well as to represent the latest generation of page printer technology.

Superb print quality

Ultra long life modules

With an amorphous silicon drum, microfine ceramic toner, and the latest technology from us such as

KIR 2 function*, this laser printer delivers superb print quality and clarity. (*See page 2-58.)

The main modules in this laser printer such as the drum, developer unit and fuser unit, which are

disposable in conventional printers, are specifically designed for extraordinarily long life and need no

periodic replacement. The drum is made of amorphous silicon which is environmentally benign. The

only maintenance regularly needed therefore is to replenish the toner supply in the developer

approximately every 25,000 printed pages (A4 landscape at a printing rate of approximately 5%) and

to clean some parts inside the printer.

Amorphous silicon drum

High speed printing

Our own unique ceramics technology has led to the development of an extremely hard and durable

drum with extraordinarily long service life. Also, the drum has several excellent photoconductive

properties, such as stability and reliability in varying temperatures, resistance to heat and solvent, etc.,

thus providing superb high resolution printing.

A3-size pages typically print at a rate of 20 pages per minute, B4 at 22 pages per minute, and

A4/letter (landscape feed) at 36 pages per minute (when printing multiple copies of the same page).

(Actual printing time varies depending on what is being printed.)

Introduction

Environmentally benign waste parts

The toner container is made out of a benign, flammable material. (Be sure to dispose of containers

according to local laws and regulations.)

Large paper capacity cassettes

Equipped at the bottom with a two-stage paper feeder, each paper cassette can hold approximately

500 sheets (80 g/m², 0.1 mm thickness). There is also a multi-purpose tray with a capacity of

approximately 100 sheets. Paper can be output on a face-down output tray or an optional face-up

output tray. Either output tray can stack approximately 500 sheets of paper.

Scalable printing

This printer allows reductions between various paper sizes using the page setup function.

Bitmapped and scalable typefaces

In addition to its 80 internal bitmap fonts, the printer provides 45 fully-scalable resident typefaces that

are equivalent to HPLJ fonts. The scalable typefaces can be used at any size desired up to

999.75 points, in 0.25-point increments.

KPDL

The printer is equipped with KPDL (our implementation of the PostScript page description language)

and Adobe PostScript Type 1 compatible 35 fonts.

shape or solid form. Also provided are a variety of special effects, such as patterned fills, gray-scale

shading, a user-accessible print image model, and multiple page orientations and print directions

within the same page.

PDF417 two-dimensional bar code

The printer includes the capability that allows the user to implement the two-dimensional stacked bar

code symbology, PDF417, or Portable Data File 417. This expanded functionality is achieved by using

the PRESCRIBE 2e language commands.

Automatic rotation of fonts and graphics

Images and scalable fonts are automatically rotated to match the page orientation.

A wide variety of internal symbol sets

The printer supports most Hewlett-Packard LaserJet 5M compatible symbol sets for both bitmap and

scalable fonts.

Chapter 1 Safeguards and Installing the Page Printer

• The printer should not be the same power circuit as an air

conditioner, fluorescent light, copier, or shredder, because these

devices generate electrical noise on the power line. If it must

share a power circuit with equipment like this, a light -frequency

noise filter or isolation transformer is advisable. (Filters and

transformers are available commercially.)

■ Power supply/Grounding the printer

WARNING

• DO NOT use a power supply with a voltage other than that

specified. Avoid multiple connections in the same outlet. These

types of situations present a danger of fire or electrical shock.......

• If the power from the outlet itself appears to be unstable, a line

stabilizer should be used. In places where the voltage tends to

fluctuate, it may be necessary to install a voltage regulator.

• Plug the power cord securely into the outlet. If metallic objects

come in contact with the prongs on the plug, it may cause a fire

or electric shock..............................................................................

• As the disconnect device is not incorporated in the printer’s AC

primary circuit, an easy accessible socket outlet must be

provided near the equipment.

• Always connect the printer to an outlet with a ground connection

to avoid the danger of fire or electrical shock in case of an electric

short. If an earth connection is not possible, contact your service

representative.................................................................................

• If the printer is used with the optional bulk paper stacker (F-8130)

or document finisher (F-8118), in order to avoid short-circuiting, it

should be ensure that these devices are plugged securely into

their respective power outlets.

Other precautions

• Connect the power plug to the closest outlet possible to the

printer.

• Be sure to connect the ground wire for the printer’s power supply

to the ground terminal of the power outlet, to a copper pole buried

at least 65 cm (25 inches) in the ground, or to a water pipe

approved by the water department for use as a ground.

• Near an AC wall outlet, preferably one that can be used for the

printer alone.

• Only use this printer under the voltage listed on the serial No.

label attached to the rear panel of the printer.

Chapter 1 Safeguards and Installing the Page Printer

• If dust accumulates within the printer, there is a danger of fire or

other trouble. It is therefore recommended that you consult with

your service representative in regard to cleaning of internal parts.

This is particularly effective if accomplished prior to seasons of

high humidity. Consult with your service representative in regard

to the cost of cleaning the internal parts of the printer...................

■ Cautions when handling consumables

CAUTION

• Avoid inhalation, ingestion, skin or eye contact. If ingestion

occurs, dilute stomach contents thoroughly with water and seek

medical treatment. If skin contact occurs, wash with soap and

water. If contact with eyes occurs, flush thoroughly with water

and seek medical treatment...........................................................

Other precautions

• DO NOT place heavy objects on the printer or cause other

damage to the printer.

• Prolonged inhalation of excessive dusts may cause lung damage.

Use of this product, as intended, does not result in inhalation of

excessive dusts..............................................................................

• DO NOT open the front cover, turn off the power switch, or pull

out the power plug during Printing.

• Do not incinerate toner and toner containers. Dangerous sparks

may cause burn. ............................................................................

• During Printing, some ozone is released, but the amount does not

cause any ill effect to one's health. If, however, the printer is used

over a long period of time in a poorly ventilated room or when

making an extremely large number of prints, the smell may

become unpleasant. To maintain the appropriate environment for

copy work, it is suggested that the room be properly ventilated.

• Keep away from children................................................................

Other precautions

• Always read the safety instructions which are included in the box

or printed on the container when handling consumables.

• When lifting or moving the printer, contact your service

representative.

• Dispose of the toner or toner containers in accordance with

Federal, State and Local rules and regulations.

• DO NOT touch electrical parts, such as connectors or printed

circuit boards. They could be damaged by static electricity.

• Store consumables in a cool, dark location.

• DO NOT attempt to perform any operations not explained in this

handbook.

• If the printer will not be used for an extended period of time,

remove the paper from the cassette, return it to its original

The Multi-Purpose Tray

The multi-purpose tray is incorporated on the right side of the printer. It can be used in one of two

modes: first mode or cassette mode. The multi-purpose tray can hold about 100 sheets of paper

(0.1 mm thickness).

First Mode (Automatic Manual Feeding)

The printer automatically feeds any paper placed on the multi-purpose tray even if another paper

source is selected. After all paper in the multi-purpose tray is printed, paper will be fed from the paper

source originally set. (This is the factory set default.)

Cassette Mode

Approximately 100 sheets of paper can be continuously fed.

For details on paper which can be used with this printer, please refer to Appendix B.

If first mode is set with the multi-purpose tray as the current cassette, printing is carried out using

custom size paper feed timing regardless of the size setting for the multi-purpose tray.

Duplex printing from the Multi-Purpose Tray

In first mode, be sure to set the MP tray to the same paper size, paper type and feed direction as set

for the current cassette. If the paper size, type or feed direction differs, a paper jam may result. Also

note that it is not possible to select the multi-purpose tray as the current cassette and perform duplex

printing. We therefore recommend that duplex printing be performed from the paper cassette. An

optional duplex unit is required to perform duplex printing.

Expanding Memory

The printer comes standard equipped with 16 MB of main memory. However, more complex pages

can be printed and processing speed increased by expanding the printer’s memory. There are two

slots available in the printer for expanding memory. (One 16 MB SIMM is installed in one of the slots

when the printer is shipped from the factory.) Printer memory can be expanded to up to 64 MB by

installing optional extended memory chips (SIMMs) in these slots.

Notes_____________________________________________________________________

The expansion memory should be installed only by an authorized dealer or a certified technician.

We shall not be liable for damage due to improper installation of the expansion memory.

This printer possesses two SIMM sockets. One 16 MB SIMM is installed in one of the sockets

when the printer is shipped from the factory. When expanding the printer’s memory to its maximum

of 64 MB, it is necessary to remove this SIMM which was installed at the factory.

Precautions on the Handling of Extended SIMMs

Static electricity which may accumulate in the human body through walking on carpets or other such

surfaces is the enemy of SIMMs loaded with many semiconductor chips. Pay attention to the following

things before installation to protect memory chips against damage from static electricity.

Do not remove the SIMMs from their anti-static bag until immediately prior to installation.

Eliminate any static electricity from your body through grounding before touching the SIMMs.

Be absolutely sure when handling the SIMMs to hold them by the substrate without touching the

Message Display

The message display displays the printer's operational mode. Messages which are displayed and

their meaning are given in the table below.

Message

Meaning

Self test

The printer is self-testing and warming up after power-up and is not ready to

print.

Please wait

Ready

The printer is warming up and is not ready to print.

The printer is ready to print

Processing

Waiting

The printer is processing print data or in the middle of printing.

The last page remains unprinted. The printer waits awhile and eventually

generates a form feed allowing the last page to be printed. (The length of

time depends on the form feed timeout setting.)

The printing will begin immediately when the Form Feed key is pressed.

If a memory card is being used this can indicate the printer is waiting for data

to be written.

Sleeping

The printer is in Sleep mode. The printer wakes from Sleep mode whenever

a key on the control panel is pressed, the cover is opened or closed, or data

is received. The printer then warms up and goes online. (The time that it

takes the printer to enter Sleep mode depends on the Sleep Timer setting.)

Cancelling data

FormFeed TimeOut

Paper loading

Data inside the printer is being canceled.

An automatic form feed has been generated.

After the paper feed cassette has been loaded into the paper feeder, the

paper feed position within the cassette is being readied.

RAM DISK

A RAM DISK can be set up as a virtual media device by setting a given amount of the total printer

memory as the RAM DISK. This can then be used for reading and writing data just as with a memory

card or as a virtual mail box function (see page 2-34). Note however that data written to the RAM

DISK is lost if the printer is reset or its power turned off. RAM DISK settings can be made from the

printer's control panel.

Notes_____________________________________________________________________

The RAM DISK is set from the printer's user memory. The printer's printing speed may therefore

drop or insufficient memory errors result depending on the value of the RAM DISK setting.

RAM DISK functions cannot be used if an optional hard disk unit is installed.

Virtual Mail Box (VMB)

The Virtual Mail Box (VMB) function is a mail box function for the printer which does not require a

physical mail box to be attached to the printer. The virtual mail box function can be used when RAM

DISK mode is

or when an optional hard disk unit is installed on the printer. This manual describes

how to use the virtual mail box with a RAM DISK.

With a virtual mail box, unlike a physical mailbox, data sent from the computer is stored in the RAM

DISK as rasterized data. This stored data accumulates in a numbered virtual output tray. When it is

time to actually print the data, it is printed by specifying the virtual output tray number where the data is

stored using the printer's control panel or an optional barcode reader.

Note______________________________________________________________________

If all the data in a virtual output tray is printed, all data in that tray will be deleted. If printing is halted by

CANCEL

pressing the

key during printing, data in that tray will not be deleted. Data is not deleted unless

all data in the virtual output tray is printed.

· ^{Locked mailbox}

Allowing a password to be set for the virtual output tray, this feature makes the printout of

confidential documents easy.

· ^{Multilevel mailbox}

Supporting up to 255 virtual output trays, mail boxes can be allocated at the individual level rather

than by the user's job title or group.

· ^{Large capacity mailbox}

There is no limit on the size per virtual output tray. Since the only limit is on the total size of all

trays, all of the RAM DISK can be used.

Virtual Mail Box (VMB)

Outputting to a VMB

When sending data to a virtual output tray set within the RAM DISK, make this setting from the printer

driver. With this setting, data can be sent by specifying the desired virtual output tray number. It is also

possible to assign a name to a virtual output tray and send data by specifying that name. (For details on

this setting, please refer to the help documentation for the printer driver.)

When data is sent by specifying a virtual output tray, printing to paper is not performed at the time data is

sent. Sent data accumulates in the virtual output trays of the RAM DISK. For details on printing

accumulated data, please see the next item.

Chapter 3 Fonts

Bitmap and Scalable Fonts

A font is a set of characters of a particular design. The design is referred to as a typeface. Several

characteristics identify a font. These include the font type (bit map or scalable), symbol set, spacing,

pitch, height, style, stroke weight, and typeface family.

The printer provides two types of resident fonts: bitmap fonts and scalable (outline) fonts. Also, fonts

may be downloaded to the printer’s memory or optional harddisk from a memory card or disk. These

fonts are referred to as downloadable or soft fonts. The printer accepts as many downloadable fonts

as its user available memory permits.

Bitmap fonts

Scalable fonts

3-2

A bitmap font is made of a fixed bit pattern. This pattern is stored in a special format for use in the

printer. Bitmap fonts have a fixed height (size) for each character. Therefore, different font sets are

required for different font sizes. For example, Dutch801BM10-Roman is a 10-point font and

Dutch801BM8-Roman is an 8-point font.

Scalable fonts provide the outline of the characters. This outline is scaled according to the scaling

information from the computer and filled in for printing. Depending on the capabilities of the software

you use, the scalable fonts can be scaled from 0.25 point to 999.75 points in quarter point increments.

List of Fonts

This section contains a full list of the printer’s resident fonts. You can print the same font list from the

printer by using the printer’s control panel key. To print a list of fonts, refer to Mode Select Menu, List of

Resident fonts.

Bitmap Fonts

Scalable Fonts

KPDL Fonts

The printer has 80 resident bitmap fonts. Note that all resident bitmap fonts include the letters BM in

the typeface name.

The printer has 45 resident scalable fonts. These fonts include the letters SWC or SWM in the

typeface name and are equivalent to HP LaserJet fonts.

The printer has 35 KPDL fonts. The KPDL fonts are Adobe PostScript Type 1-compatible and have

the suffix SWA at the end of the font name.

Symbol Set

A symbol set is the set of alphabetical and numerical characters and symbols the printer prints. Each

character is assigned to a particular character code.

The page printer offers not only a large selection of bitmap and scalable fonts but also a large

selection of symbol sets (also referred to as character sets). This is because the printers the page

printer emulates have a number of their own symbol sets for printing in different languages and other

purposes. Most of those symbol sets are the same regarding the letters of the alphabet, digits, and

basic punctuation marks, but they differ considerably in their special symbols which lie in the upper

half of the character code table, consisting of character codes 128 through 254 (hex 80 through FE).

The symbol set selection can also be made from the printer’s control panel. See Mode Select Menu

on the last page in this manual.

General Guidelines

Although the page printer is designed for printing on standard dry PPC photocopier copy paper (standard

paper), it can print on various types of paper that conforms to the specifications given in this chapter.

Select paper carefully as use of paper inappropriate for the printer may result in paper jams or

wrinkling of output paper. Low-quality paper may reduce printing quality, not only wasting paper but

possibly leading to damage to the printer. It is possible to achieve efficient printing with few problems

and minimize the risk of printer damage or wear by following the precautions listed below.

Usable Paper

Be sure to use copy paper (standard paper) used in standard dry PPC photocopiers.

Note______________________________________________________________________

Some recycled paper does not meet the necessary specifications for use in this printer due to

conditions such as stored water and pulp content. Before purchasing recycled paper, test a sample

on the printer and check that printing quality is satisfactory. Be sure to select a brand of recycled

paper which offers good printing quality and does not contain excessive levels of paper dust.

There are differences in grade between each paper manufacturer, and these differences can affect

printer operations. Satisfactory printing results cannot be obtained through the use of poor-quality paper.

Even inexpensive paper may turn out to be uneconomical from a results standpoint if its quality is

inappropriate for the printer.

Appendix B Paper Selection

Selecting the Right Paper

The following sections explain the basic things to look for when selecting paper. Keep these things in

mind when selecting paper.

Condition of the Paper

Avoid using paper that is folded at the corners, curled, dirty, stained, has a rough cut, fuzzy fibers,

rough surface or is easily torn.

Use of paper in these conditions can lead to illegible printing, misfeeding, and paper jams, and can

shorten the life of the printer. Select paper which has as smooth and even a surface as possible.

Note that use of paper with a surface coating or other surface treatment may damage the drum or

fuser unit.

Composition

Do not use paper that has been coated or surface-treated and contains plastic or carbon. The heat of

fusing can cause such paper to give off harmful fumes, and may damage the drum.

Bond paper should contain at least 80% pulp. Not more than 20% of the total paper content should

consist of cotton or other fibers.

Selecting the Right Paper

Paper Size

Cassettes and the multi-purpose tray can handle the paper sizes listed in the following table. The

printer automatically detects the paper size loaded in a cassette.

80 148 mm (3.1 5.8 inches). The maximum size is 297 450 mm (11.7 17.7 inches). (Printing

position adjustment is required.)

Smoothness

Although it is important to use paper with a smooth and even surface, do not use paper which has

been coated. Paper that is too smooth, can cause multiple feeding and paper jams.

B-5

Appendix B Paper Selection

Basis Weight

Basis weight is the weight of one square meter sheet of paper. Paper that is too light or too heavy can

cause misfeeding, jams, and premature wear of the printer. Uneven paper weight can cause multiple

feeds, print defects, poor toner fusing, blurring, and other print quality problems. The proper weight is 60

to 90 g/m²for regular paper and 90 to 200 g/m²for thick paper.

Thickness

The paper used with the printer should be neither extremely thick nor extremely thin. If you are having

problems with multiple feeds and paper jams, the paper may be too thin. The paper may also be too

thick if you are having problems with paper jams. The proper thickness is 0.086 to 0.110 mm (3.4 to 4.3

mils).

Moisture Content

Moisture content is defined as the percent ratio of moisture to the dry mass of the paper. Moisture can

affect feedability, electrostatic properties, and toner fusing characteristics.

The moisture content of the paper varies with the relative humidity in the room. When the relative

humidity is high and the paper absorbs moisture, the paper edges expand, becoming wavy in

appearance. When the relative humidity is low and the paper loses moisture, the edges shrink and

tighten, and print contrast may suffer.

Wavy or tight edges can cause misfeeding and alignment anomalies. The moisture content of the

paper should be 4% to 6%.

To ensure the proper moisture content it is important to store the paper in a controlled environment.

Some tips on moisture control are:

B-6

Selecting the Right Paper

· ^{Store paper in a dry, well-ventilated location.}

· ^{Keep the paper flat and in its wrapping as long as possible. Rewrap paper that is not in use.}

· ^{Store paper in its original carton. Place a pallet etc. under the carton to separate it from the}

floor. Keep paper away from boarding or concrete floors during the rainy season.

· ^{Avoid leaving paper where it is exposed to heat, sunlight, or damp.}

Other Paper Properties

Stiffness

Paper that is too limp or too stiff may fold or bend inside the printer, resulting in a paper jam.

Curl

Most paper has a natural tendency to curl in one direction or the other if it is stored unwrapped. Paper

will curl slightly upward when it passes through the fuser unit. Load the paper with its natural curl

downward so that it will come out flat. Some paper also has a front and back surface. If this is

indicated on the paper's packaging, be sure to load the paper into the cassette face down.

Electrostatic properties

During the printing process the paper is electrostatically charged to attract the toner. The paper must

be able to release this charge so that printed sheets do not cling together in the output tray.

Quality control

Uneven sheet size, corners that are not square, ragged edges, welded (uncut) sheets, and crushed

edges and corners can cause the printer to malfunction in various ways. Pay particular attention to

these considerations if you are choosing paper yourself.

Appendix B Paper Selection

Packaging

Select paper that is wrapped by the ream and then placed in a box. The best wrapping is one whose

inner surface is coated to protect again humidity.

Specially treated paper

We recommend that you avoid using paper listed below which has been specially treated, even if it

meets basic specifications. If you wish to use such paper, test a sample on the printer and check that

printing quality is satisfactory before purchasing.

photocopiers and/or page printers. Feed paper other than colored paper or pre-printed paper from the

MP (multi-purpose) tray or optional envelope feeder (EF-100).

Since the composition and quality of special paper vary considerably, special paper is more likely than

white bond paper to give trouble during printing. Special paper may be used with this printer if it meets

the following conditions. Note that these types of paper differ greatly in their construction and quality,

resulting in an increased chance of problems occurring during printing. No liability will be assumed if

moisture etc. given off in printing on special paper causes harm to the machine or operator.

Note______________________________________________________________________

Before purchasing any type of special paper, test a sample on the printer and check that printing

quality is satisfactory.

Specifications for each type of special paper are given below.

Colored Paper

Colored paper should meet the same specifications as listed for white bond paper in page B-3. In

addition, the pigments used in the paper must be able to withstand the temperature of the printer’s

fusing process (approximately 200°C [392°F]).

Preprinted Paper

The paper base of preprinted paper should meet basic specifications. The preprinted ink must be able

to withstand the temperature of the printer’s fusing process (approximately 200°C [392°F]), and do not

use paper with any kind of surface treatment, such as the type of paper commonly used for calendars.

Special Paper

Thick Paper/Postcards

Use postcards weighing 90 to 200 g/m². Any postcards of size 100 mm by 148 mm or larger may be

used. Avoid using homemade postcards, picture postcards or postcards whose printing surface has

been coated. Do not use paper which has a rough cut.

When using paper which is slightly curled or paper which is printed on one side be sure to slightly curl

the paper upward as shown in the figure.

Feed direction

Envelopes

Envelopes made from paper weighing 60 to 79 g/m²may be printed using this printer.

Envelopes are not of even thickness due to their folded construction. It therefore may not be possible to

print evenly on an envelope surface in some cases. Envelopes which are particularly thick may wrinkle

as they come out of the printer. Test a sample envelope on the printer and check that printing quality is

satisfactory before purchasing.

Envelopes with exposed adhesive cannot be used regardless of their type. Envelopes which use

peel-off strips to cover adhesive also cannot be used as this little strip coming off inside the printer can

result in major damage.

Envelopes which have been specially treated also cannot be used. For example, envelopes with

string attached for sealing , envelopes with open windows, and envelopes with film covered windows

cannot be used with this printer.

Appendix B Paper Selection

Label

The basic rule for printing on adhesive label is that the adhesive must never come into contact with

any part of the printer. Adhesive paper sticking to the drum or rollers will damage the printer.

Label paper must be manually fed.

Label paper has a structure comprising three layers, as shown below. The top sheet is printed on. The

adhesive layer consists of pressure-sensitive adhesives. The carrier sheet (also called the linear or

backing sheet) holds the label until use. Due to the complexity of its composition, adhesive-backed

label paper is particularly likely to give trouble in printing.

Top sheet (white bond paper)

Adhesive

Carrier sheet

Adhesive-back label

Adhesive label paper must be entirely covered by its top sheet, with no spaces between the individual

labels. Labels with spaces in between are apt to peel off, causing serious jam problems.

Some label paper is manufactured with an extra margin of top sheet around the edge. Do not remove

the extra top sheet from the carrier sheet until after printing is finished.

RS-232C Cable Connection

Preparing an RS-232C Cable

After obtaining an RS-232C cable, check that it is wired correctly, referring to the pin assignment table in

Appendix C

. If you have an IBM communication adapter cable type 1502067, you will have to resolder

the wiring at the printer end of the cable. The procedure is as follows.

Unscrew the plastic cover from the printer end of the cable.

Next to each of the wires inside the cable is a bare shield wire. Solder all these shield wires

together into a single bundle.

Using a section of flat wire about 3 mm wide and 15 mm long, connect the bundle of shield wires

to the metal facing of the connector. Check that the solder connections are secure.

Desolder wires 2 and 3, then resolder them in crossed configuration. Solder wire 2 to pin 3 and

wire 3 to pin 2. Cover the solder joints with thermofit tube.

Cut wires 4, 5, 6, and 20.

Solder wires 5 and 6 together and connect them to pin 20. Cover the solder joints with thermofit

tube. Leave wire 4 unconnected.

Tape all remaining loose ends, or seal them with thermofit tube.

Screw the plastic cover back on.

Appendix C Host Computer Interface

Connecting the Printer to the Computer

Check that the power of both the printer and computer is switched off.

Discharge yourself by touching a metal object such as a doorknob.

Remove the plastic cap from the printer’s RS-232C interface connector.

Plug the printer end of the RS-232C interface cable into the printer’s RS-232C connector and

screw it in place.

Plug the other end of the cable into the computer’s RS-232C interface connector.

Switch on the printer’s power.

The printer’s RS-232C parameters are factory-set to the following values:

Baud rate=9600 bps, Data bits (character length)=8 bits,

Stop bits=1, Parity=None

The three RS-232C protocols are XON/XOFF and DTR. The printer performs all three of them

simultaneously, using positive logic for DTR.

If you are uncertain as to the printer’s current parameter settings, you can reset them to the

values listed above by following the manner described in the last page in this manual.

RS-232C Cable Connection

Set the computer to the same parameters as the printer. On many computers

by setting DIP switches before power is turned on. Another method is as follows:

this can be done

In DOS, enter the following commands:

C>MODE COM1:96,N,8,1,P

C>MODE LPT1:=COM1

To test the interface, then enter:

CTRL P

C>DIR

CTRL P

The software settings made by the procedures above are temporary. On most computers,

permanent settings must be made with DIP switches.

If you want to use a different baud rate or change any of the other RS-232C parameters, you can

use the printer’s FRPO (firmware reprogram) command. See the

details.
