Printer Configuration
Z Series™ Configuration
The Z Series™ printer will have one of two different styled front pan- els. The deluxe front panel contains an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display), but the standard front panel does not. With the deluxe front panel, the LCD displays the parameters during the configuration process. For those printers with the standard front panel, two banks of eight miniature switches located inside the printer’s front panel access door are used when configuring the printer.
Communications Parameters
The Z Series™ printer is equipped with both serial data and parallel data communication interfaces. This permits two sources to send label formats to the printer.
The first source to send a “Start of Label Format” command controls the printer. The printer will send a “printer busy” command to the second source to inhibit data transmission.
The serial interface is factory preset to match the typical PC environment with RS232 communication:
9600 Baud, 8 Data Bits,
No Parity, Xon/Xoff Handshaking.
If you need to change your printer’s serial communications settings to match those of your host computer, refer to Appendix A. If you do not know the settings of your host computer, refer to the instruction manual provided with the computer or your software application.
See Appendix B of this guide for specific data communication cable requirements.
The printer automatically senses if a parallel communications cable is connected from your host computer.
