Adjustments and Settings

The TM-T88II Series are set up at the factory to be appropriate for almost all users. It does, however, offer some settings for users with special requirements.

It has DIP switches that allow you to change communication settings, such as handshaking and parity check, as well as print density.

The TM-T88II Series also have a near-end sensor for the paper. This can give you a warning when the paper is almost out. If you find that there is not enough paper remaining on the roll when the near- end detector is triggered, you can change the near-end sensor setting.

See Appendix A if you need to make any of these changes.
