Printer Configuration

Star printers can be configured via two different mechanisms.

1.DIP switches (mechanical switched)

2.Memory switches

When using these drivers with your Star printer no changes to the factory default DIP switch settings are required.

In addition, the factory default memory switch settings do not need to be changed unless you choose to use black mark paper.

When using black mark paper with your printer you must enable the printer’s black mark sensor. This is done via memory switches. The table below lists the memory switch position used to enable the black mark sensor for all black mark capable printers.
