Communication Values

In order for your printer to communicate with your host, you must make sure the communication values are set to the same values. The default values shipped with the printer are:

✦	Baud:	9600
✦	Word Length:	8-bit data frame
✦	Stop Bits:	1-stop bit
✦	Parity:	none
✦	Flow Control:	DTR

To change the printer’s communications values, see your System Administrator or the MPCL II Programmer’s Manual.

Printing in On-Demand Mode ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

In On-demand mode, the printer prints one label at a time. After the first label prints, the printer waits for you to remove the label before it prints the next label. For On-demand printing, your labels must be loaded in peel mode.

On-demand mode is the default mode for the printer (the LED is solid green). If the LED is solid amber, the printer is in Continuous mode. To switch to On-demand mode, ask your System Administrator to re-configure the printer.

To print labels on demand:

n Use only paper labels in peel mode.

1.Load the labels for peel mode. See Chapter 2, "Loading Supplies."

2.Make sure the host has downloaded a print job. See the MPCL II Programmer’s Manual for more information. After the print job is downloaded, the LED rapidly blinks green (1/4 sec) to indicate the printer is ready to print.

3.Press the trigger to print the label.

4.After each label prints, remove it.
