Connecting the Printer to the Computer

1.Check that the power of both the printer and computer is switched off.

2.Discharge yourself by touching a metal object such as a doorknob.

3.Remove the plastic cap from the printer’s RS-232C interface connector.

4.Plug the printer end of the RS-232C interface cable into the printer’s RS-232C connector and screw it in place.

5.Plug the other end of the cable into the computer’s RS-232C interface connector.

6.Switch on the printer’s power.

7.The printer’s RS-232C parameters are factory-set to the following values:

Baud rate=9600 bps, Data bits (character length)=8 bits, Stop bits=1, Parity=None

The three RS-232C protocols are XON/XOFF and DTR. The printer performs all three of them simultaneously, using positive logic for DTR.

If you are uncertain as to the printer’s current parameter settings, you can reset them to the values listed above by following the manner described in the last page in this manual.
