Printronix L5035 user manual Online State Buffer State Response Characters, Baud Rate, Data Bits

Chapter 3 Printer Configuration

SERIES 1, 2 CH

When you select the Series 1 with 2 Characters protocol, the printer behaves exactly the same as the Series 1 with 1 Character protocol, except that the printer sends two-character responses to the host. These response characters are listed in the following table:

Online State	Buffer State	Response Characters
Online	Buffer Empty	1 CR
	Buffer Full	3 CR
Offline	Buffer Empty	0 CR
	Buffer Full	2 CR

NOTE: When using the SERIES 1, 2 CH protocol, be careful with the transmission of binary data (control codes, bit images, etc.) since the printer discards poll characters.

Baud Rate

Values: 110 to 256,000.

9600 is the default.

This parameter must be set to match your host computer.

Baud rate is the number of bits, including control bits (start/stop and parity bits) transferred per second over the interface.

Data Bits

Values: 5 to 8 (default).

This parameter must be set to match your host computer.

Serial interfaces support 5, 6, 7, and 8-bit transfer of data words. Most use 8-bit data transfer, but this must match the host computer.
