If you have programmed the printer to handle the busy line the old way, but wish
to re-program it to the new way, do the following steps:
1. Record the current switch settings for their RS-232C parameters.
2. Set switches 2, 3, and 6 to OFF, and set switches 1, 4, and 5 to ON.
3. Power cycle the printer.
4. Wait until the printer beeps to store the parameter change in NVRAM.
5. Restore the switches to their RS-232C parameters.
6. Power cycle the printer.
7. Print out the diagnostics to be sure that the busy line parameter changed.
