Getting Started
Host Interface Set Up
Prior to using your printer with a computer application, check the interface settings to be sure they match those
required by your host system.
Each printer is equipped with a Serial RS-232C interface which is selected by default. Additionally, the printer
may also be equipped with either an IrDA interface, Bluetooth interface, or Wi-Fi interface. The model
description on the serial number label will indicate if one of the optional interfaces is installed. The factory
defaults for the basic settings for each interface are listed below.
Interface Factory Default Interface Settings
Serial RS-232C Printek Emulation, 38,400 Baud, 8 Data Bits, 1 Stop Bit, No Parity, No Handshake
IrDA Printek Emulation. No other set up required.
Bluetooth Printek Emulation, Pairing Mode = Paired, Security Disabled,
Bluetooth Name = “MtP400-xxxx” where “xxxx” is the last four digits of the
Bluetooth interface’s hardware Address.
