Configuration and Calibration M-Series User ’s Guide

Bank 1 (For Serial-Interface Printers Only)

The M-Series Printer, with the RS-232 Serial Interface, uses eight miniature switches located on the rear of the printer, above the Signal Interface Cable Connector. The ON/OFF positions of these switches establish some of the Printer Configuration Parameters.

Bank 1 switches must be properly positioned to establish serial data communications with the host computer. Thereafter, the position of these switches should not be changed.

Note: Parallel-interface printers do not require these configuration parameters, therefore they have no Bank 1 switches.

If these switches are in the proper position to match the communication configuration of the host computer, and the printer is not receiving data, refer to the Interconnections Section and make sure the correct interface cable is being used.

Note: The printer is fixed at 1 stop bit, so make sure that your host device is also set at 1 stop bit.
