Chapter 7 : Deploying a Printer Project

You cannot download firmware over a serial connection. When you establish a serial connection, you receive the following warning message. This is simply a reminder that you cannot download firmware over a serial connection. You can do everything else you want over a serial connection to manage and control your printer from 123 Print.

If you want to download firmware, be sure to establish a parallel or network connection with the printer.

When the printer is successfully connected, the connection status on the bottom left-hand corner of the main 123 Print window shows, in green letters, that the printer is Connected.

If the connection is over an Ethernet network, the connection status message gives the IP address of the connected printer, such as Connected IP:172.16.32.21.

Parallel port and serial connections result in similar connection status messages, such as Connected LPT1 and Connected COM1 38400 (where 38400 represents the baud rate of the serial connection).

Printer controls	Notice that a number of icons have become active with the successful
	connection to the printer. The functions of these icons are described in
	the following sections.
