Connecting The Verifone 250 Receipt Printer
With all of the parts listed in the previous section, we are now ready to connect
the receipt printer to your computer. First, lets assemble the various receipt
printer parts. (DO NOT INSTALL THE POWER PACK AT THIS TIME. ENSURE
THAT THE POWER PACK IS NOT PLUGGED INTO THE WALL.)
Setting DIP Switches
By default, the DIP Switches on your printer should already be correctly set.
However, it is a good idea to check these setting before proceeding. The DIP
Switches on your printer are located under the Ribbon Cartridge. Remove the
Ribbon Cover from the Printer Unit by simultaneously pressing-in and pulling-up
on the grooved thumb button on the front panel of your printer. (Below the printer
nameplate.) If the Ribbon Cartridge is already installed, gently remove it by
pulling up on each side evenly. To the right of the ribbon cartridge assembly (the
rectangular metal box that the Ribbon Cartridge sits over) are the DIP Switches.
Turn the entire Printer Unit clockwise until you are looking at the right-side of the
unit. Your DIP Switches should look like the diagram on the next page. If they
are not, move each DIP Switch using a ballpoint pen or pencil until they all match
the illustration.
