IQ6500 Printer Configuration
With the RS-232 option installed you can use a ticket, tape, or bar code label printer to record scale activity.
The IQ6500 allows you to print from the weighing mode or program mode. You would print from the weigh-
ing mode when performing an actual counting operation, while printing from the programming mode is used
to check for item memory. Both modes produce a print ticket or tape. The * key is used to activate the print
function.
9.3.1
Pin Connections
The table at right lists the pin connections
used for most printers attached to the
IQ6500. Use the standard D-SUB connec-
tions listed for TM-300, TM-290II, TM-
295, SP2000, and SP2200 printers.
The table also lists pin connections for
Allegro printers attached using the 8-pin
DIN connector and running software
version 6.359 and for Eltron printers
attached using the 25-to-9 pin Eltron
interface cable.
See Section 12.3 for more information
about the Eltron printer interface option.
9.3.2
Spec Code Settings
The following table shows the recommended spec code settings for printers commonly attached to the IQ6500
counting scale. Certain printers require different SPEC code settings, depending on the version of IQ6500
software used.
See Section 6.0, Setting Configuration, for more information about configuring spec codes.
The IQ6500 is shipped with the baud rate set at 4800 baud; if the IQ6500 baud rate is changed, the printer
DIP switch settings must be adjusted so that the baud rates specified for the scale and printer match. See
Section 9.2.2 for information about changing the IQ6500 baud rate.
