Setting up serial printing

In serial printing, data is transferred one bit at a time. Although serial printing is usually slower than parallel printing, it is the preferred option when there is a great deal of distance between the printer and computer or when an interface with a better transfer rate is not available.

After installing the serial port, you will need to configure the printer and the computer so they can communicate. Make sure you have connected the serial cable to the serial port on your printer.

1Set the parameters in the printer:

aFrom the printer control panel, navigate to the menu with port settings.

bLocate the submenu with serial port settings.

cMake any necessary changes to the serial settings.

dSave the new settings.

ePrint a menu settings page.

2Install the printer driver:

aInsert the Software and Documentation CD. It launches automatically. If the CD does not launch automatically, do one of the following:

In Windows Vista

1Click .

2In the Start Search box, type D:\setup.exe, where D is the letter of your CD or DVD drive.

In Windows XP and earlier

1Click Start.

2 Click Run.

3 Type D:\setup.exe, where D is the letter of your CD or DVD drive.

bClick Install Printer and Software.

cClick Agree to accept the Printer Software License Agreement.

dClick Custom.

eMake sure Select Components is selected, and then click Next.

fMake sure Local is selected, and then click Next.

gSelect the manufacturer of the printer from the menu.

hSelect the printer model from the menu, and then click Add Printer.

iClick the + beside the printer model under Select Components.

jMake sure the correct port is available under Select Components. This is the port where the serial cable attaches to the computer. If the correct port is not available, select the port under the Select Port menu, and then click Add Port.
