Setting Serial Parameters

For successful serial communications, the computer and the printer must
use identical communications parameters. These parameters consist of
baud rate, parity, data bits, stop bits and handshake protocol. You set
these parameters—BAUD, PARITY, DATA BITS, STOP BITS and
HNDSHK—on the printer's Setup menu. For more information on
these parameters, refer to the Control Panel section of this guide.

Handshaking Methods

The printer supports three handshaking methods:

9

9

9

9

9 DTR: The DTR lines in the serial interface provide the DTR hand-

shake. To pause data transfer, the printer sets DTR low; to resume,
it sets DTR high.
