The method of interfacing this printer to a data source depends on the
communication options installed in the printer. The standard interfaces are an
RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 serial data port and an IEEE 1284 compliant bi-directional
parallel port. The optional ZebraNet

®

PrintServer II enables printers to be connected

to 10Base-T Ethernet networks.

When communicating via an
asynchronous serial data port (refer to
Figure 11), the baud rate, number of
data and stop bits, parity, and
handshaking are user selectable (default
settings are 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1
stop bit, no parity, and XON/XOFF).
Parity only applies to data transmitted
by the printer since the parity of
received data is ignored. Refer to
page 46 to configure the
communication parameters for the
printer. The values selected must be the
same as those used by the host
equipment connected to the printer.
