Option	Setting		Description
Baud Rate	57600	Speed at which data is transferred.
	38400	Baud rate translates approximately to bits per
	19200
		second.
	9600*
	4800
	2400
			The serial port Baud Rate setting must
	1200
			match the host computer baud rate
	600
			setting.
	300	Note
			Your software application may set the
			baud rate. If not, use the DOS MODE
			command to modify the baud rate on
			the host computer. Refer to your DOS
			documentation for more information.
Handshake	Robust XON*	Data flow control. (Flow control, also known as
	XON	handshaking, is the cooperation between the host
	Hardware	computer and printer for data transfer. XON signals
		the host computer to send more data. XOFF is the
		converse signal that tells the host computer to stop
		and wait.)
		Robust XON sends the XON signal continuously.
		Robust XON helps ensure that handshaking works
		with a host computer that fails to receive the XON
		signal.
		XON sends the signal only once.
		Hardware is used when the host computer cannot
		operate in XON/XOFF handshaking mode. Hardware
		requires a cable with the DTR (Data Terminal
		Ready) pin connection enabled.
DTR Polarity	High*	Serial port’s DTR (Data Terminal Ready) signal sent
	Low	from the printer to notify the host computer that it is
		ready to receive data.
		High is standard for most computers; it uses true logic
		(+5 V).
		Low is typically used on nonstandard equipment; it
		uses inverted logic (0 V).
