Setting Switches

A group of switches, called DIP switches, are used to set communication parameters for the RS-232C communication interface. The switches are located behind the front cover.

Note: The DIP switches are used for other functions. See the “Diagnostics” chapter in the Owner's Guide for more information.

Caution: The DIP switches are set at the factory to predetermined settings and should generally not be changed. If you must change the settings do so carefully to avoid changing other functions.

Before changing any of the switches, first run the print test to print out the current switch settings on the receipt. See “Testing the Printer” earlier in this book for instructions on running the print test and for a sample printout.
