Section 5: Printer Configuration

CLEAR NON-STANDARD PROTOCOL

The standard protocol codes used by the printer can be modified to accomodate the requirements of different host systems. However, if the printer is to be used with a system that does not use the custom protocol codes, they can be cleared and the default protocol codes reactivated. The default values are: STX = 7BH, ETX = 7DH, ESC = 5EH, ENQ = 40H, NULL = 7EH, CAN = 21H and OFFLINE = 5DH.
