2.3.5 Connecting a printer
A printer with a serial or parallel interface can be connected to the
RS232 interface for printing out reports.
The connection of the 40-character Custom DP40-S4N printer
(Metrohm ordering number: 2.140.0200) with the serial 6.2134.110 Ca-
ble is described as an example:
Fig. 11: 780 pH Meter / 781 pH/Ion Meter – Printer
The transmission parameters for the pH/Ion Meter and the printer must
be the same. On the pH/Ion Meter these are set under
CONFIG/peripheral units/character set: (see Sec-
tion 5.6)
and under
CONFIG/RS232 settings (see Section 5.7).
These settings and other possible printer connections are given in the
following table. If you wish to connect a printer which is not mentioned
here then make sure that it emulates the Epson mode or uses the inter-
national character set according to IBM Standard Table 437 and IBM-
compatible graphics control characters.
Please observe the paper feed settings after each report printout (see
Section 5.1).
The settings for graph sizes in the printer output are accessible in the
setup of the pH/Ion Meter and are described in Section 7.5.3. This can
particularly be necessary for single sheet printers (i.e. HP Desk Jet).
