Using Set-Up Mode
Deciding Which Options to Change
The previous page shows a printout of the printer’s factory settings. In this printout, options
are listed by functional group:
• MACRO 1 and MACRO 2 functions
• INSTALL function
• ADJUST function
• MENU-ACCES function
Most selectable values only alter print features such as the type style and page format.
Some values must be selected correctly for the printer to work properly with your
hardware and software, however. For each function, the following table lists options
whose values must be selected correctly for your system and printer.
Required Options
Function Option Value
PROTOCOL The protocol selected on the printer must be the same
as the protocol selected in your software. If you
selected a protocol when you set up the printer, you
do not need to change the
PROTOCOL option unless
you want to change to a different protocol.
For MACRO 1 , the factory setting is PORT DEPND
(Port Dependent). This means that the active protocol
depends on which port is actually used by the printer.
The protocol for the serial port (
PRTCL SERL ) is
factory set to DEC PPL2, and the protocol for the
parallel port ( PRTCL PARL ) is factory set to
EPSON-ESCP .
For MACRO 2 , the factory setting is also PORT
DEPND . The protocol for the serial port ( PRTCL
SERL ) is also set to DEC PPL2 , but the protocol for
the parallel port ( PRTCL PARL ) is factory set to IBM
PPX24 .
See the section, “Changing Macro 1 and Macro 2
Options,” later in this chapter.
ADJUST You can separately adjust the origin of the Top-of-
Form for both continuous forms and single sheets.
See the section, “Adjusting Top-of-Form Origin,” later
in this chapter.
