C.3. RS-232C/RS-422A Protocol

A protocol is a set of rules the computer follows in sending data to the printer. The RS-232C/RS-422A param- eters are stored in battery backed-up memory. They are indicated on the status printout. They can be changed by the FRPO (firmware reprogram) command described in the Programming Manual. The param- eters and their identification codes are given below.

H1: Baud rate

Parameter value	Baud rate

12	1200

24	2400

48	4800

96	9600

19	19200

38	38400

57	57600

11	115200

The factory setting is 9600 baud.

H2: Data bits

7 or 8, factory-set to 8.

H3: Stop bits

1 or 2, factory-set to 1.

H4: Parity

Parameter value	Meaning

0	None

1	Odd

2	Even

3	Ignore

The factory setting is "None" (0 on the status printout).

H5: Protocol logic

Parameter value	Meaning

0	Combination of 1 and 3 below

1	DTR/DSR, positive logic

2	DTR/DSR, negative logic

3	XON/XOFF

4	ETX/ACK

5	XON/XOFF recognized only as protocol

The factory setting is 0.

H6: Buffer nearly-full threshold

This is a percentage from 0 to 99. The factory setting is 90.
