INTRODUCTION
Your new multimode matrix printer offers bidirectional logic-seeking printing at
400 cps in draft mode, memo qriaiity printing at 180 cps and up to 120 cps in
near-letter-quality correspondence mode. Because of its multimode capabilities,
this printer is suited for applications where multiple printers would otherwise be
required. True lower case descenders and simultaneous underlining are possible.
An adjustable printhead gap accommodates forms up to six parts in thickness.
Fanfold forms from 3 to 15 inches may be fed through the front or bottom of the
printer.
The progranamable features of this printer may be configured from the control
panel on the front of the printer or via the communication line. The LED
indicators, digital display and custom keypad make format set up quick and
simple. A non-volatile memory retains the settings when power is turned off,
eliminating the need to reconfigure the printer before its next use.
Baud rates from 110-19.2K may be used over the RS-232 interface. A 16K
character buffer and a choice of three handshaking protocols ensure optimum
throughput. An 8-bit parallel interface is also provided.
