Switch Settings

The DIP switches are located on the printed circuit board and are accessed from the bottom of the printer. You do not need to remove any covers to change the DIP switches.

The DIP switches are used to set the RS-232C parameters and the Data Error and Data Buffer options as shown. These parameters must match those of the host system in order for the host system and the printer to communicate. See “Level 1 Diagnostics” in the “Diagnostics” chapter for more information.

Caution: The switches can also be used for setting other functions and tests. Be careful when setting the switches for the RS-232C settings that you do not accidentally change the settings for the other functions and tests.

Use a paper clip or other pointed object to set the switches.

1.Press the On Line button to take the printer off-line.

2.Turn the printer over and set the switches to the desired settings shown in the table on the next page.

Switch 1 must be set to Off when setting switches for the RS-232C settings. This puts the printer in the on-line mode to communicate with the host system.

Caution: Do not set DIP switch 1 to On. Setting switch 1 to On puts the printer in level 1 diagnostics (setup) mode where other functions and tests can be changed.
