If you have a serial interface, the serial interface options selected on the printer must be the same as the settings you selected using your software or your computer operating system. If the settings are not the same, the printer will not print or will print garbage.

Changing Macro 1 and Macro 2 Options
The MACRO 1 and MACRO 2 functions allow you to use two sets of different print options according to your application software. You can easily switch between MACRO 1 and MACRO 2 in Normal mode as described in Chapter 3, “Printing.”
With the factory setting, MACRO 1 is invoked when you first turn on the printer. The Macro selection change is permanently retained in the printer.
Select the same protocol on the printer as is selected in your software. If the protocols are not the same, the printer will not work correctly with your software. If you plan to use two different protocols on a regular basis, assign the most frequently used protocol to MACRO 1. Assign the second protocol to MACRO 2. All of the other settings available for MACRO 1 and MACRO 2 are optional. Some of the options and values will vary with the protocol.
To determine which features your software supports, refer to your software documentation.
The following table describes the MACRO 1 and MACRO 2 options and values. Both functions offer the same options and values. The options in the table are listed in the order in which they are printed. Not all options are defined for all protocols, and some values vary with the protocol.
The procedure for changing the MACRO 1 and MACRO 2 options are presented in the previous sections of this chapter.
