Printing
INTERFACE
Use this tab to control the following printer features (when using the
serial port only):
• Baud rate (bps) sets the rate at which data is being sent to or from the
computer.
• Robust XON sets XON/XOFF pacing (if the handshaking protocol uses
XON/XOFF pacing). When set to ON, the printer sends a continuous
stream of XONs to the host computer to indicate that the serial port is
ready to receive more data. An XON is sent every second as long as no
data is received across the serial port in the last second, the last XON is
accepted by the host computer, and the printer is ready to receive data
from the serial port.
TEST
Use this tab to control the following printer features:
• Configuration Page prints the configuration sheet. Alist of the user
default settings, the installed options, and the amount of printer
memory available prints.
• Demonstration Page prints the demonstration page. It shows the
printer features and specifications.
PCL5e
These settings are used by DOS applications. Be aware that Windows
applications will override these settings.
• Typefaceallows you to select the desired typeface. This setting is
ignored when the software application specifies a font.
• Symbol Set determines the symbol set. Asymbol set is a set of
alphabetic and numeric characters, punctuation, and special symbols
used when printing with a selected font.
• Pitch sets the font pitch (only if you have selected a scalable mono-
spaced font). Pitch refers to the number of fixed-space characters in a
horizontal inch of type.
• Lines Per Page sets the number of lines that print on each page. The
setting can range from 5 to 128 lines per page.
• Point Size sets the font point size (only if you have selected a scalable
typographic font). Point size refers to the height of the characters in the
font. One point equals approximately 1/72 of an inch. You can select
point sizes from 1 to 1008 in increments of 0.25 points.
• Courier determines the courier font type: Regular or Dark.
• Font List prints the font list showing all the fonts available for PCL
emulation.
