Connecting the Printer to the Computer

1.

Check that the power of both the printer and computer is switched off.


2.

Discharge yourself by touching a metal object such as a doorknob.


3.

Remove the plastic cap from the printer’s RS-232C interface connector.


4.

Plug the printer end of the RS-232C interface cable into the printer’s RS-232C connector and

screw it in place.


5.

Plug the other end of the cable into the computer’s RS-232C interface connector.


6.

Switch on the printer’s power.


7.

The printer’s RS-232C parameters are factory-set to the following values:

Baud rate=9600 bps, Data bits (character length)=8 bits,

Stop bits=1, Parity=None

The three RS-232C protocols are XON/XOFF and DTR. The printer performs all three of them

simultaneously, using positive logic for DTR.
