Chapter 3 Printer Configuration

Host Interface Menu

The printer provides the following host interface options:

Centronics®parallel

Dataproducts®parallel (requires optional cable adapter, p/n 703316-001)

Serial (RS-232 or RS-422)

NOTE: In addition to the software configuration for the serial interface, a toggle switch on the right side of the printer (adjacent to the RS232/422 connector) must be set for either RS-232 or RS-422. The location of the RS-232/422 toggle switch is shown in Chapter 1, “Introduction.”

The configuration options for each interface type are shown in the illustrations on the following pages. Descriptions of the options follow each illustration. Set these options to meet the specific data communication requirements of the host computer as well as the application running on the host.

NOTE: For interface connector pin assignments and additional host interface signal information, see Appendix C, “Host I/O Interfaces.”
