21.2. Printer
Moisture analyzer’s submenu < Printer > enables:
− Setting communication port with a printer,
− Defining printer’s code page, (default 1250)
− Defining controlling codes for PCL printer
− Defining printout standards (templates)
In order to ensure right cooperation of a balance with a printer (correct printout
of letters with diacritical signs specified for a given language), suitable speed of
transmission must be chosen for the balance, i.e. it must be respective to
transmission speed of a printer (see the printer settings). Additionally a given
printout code page must be accordant with the printer code page.
Code page accordance may be obtained as follows:
• by setting the right code page in the printer (see the printer manual) –
respective to printout code page set in a balance; or
• by sending control code from a balance to the printer, which automatically
sets the right code page (respective to code page set in a balance) in
advance before execution of the data printout – it is possible only for
printers supplied with such option.
Example balance settings for a correct cooperation (Polish diacritical signs
printout) with EPSON printer connected to port RS232:
1. Dot matrix printer EPSON TM-U220B
Communication parameters of port to which the printer is connected
• baud rate – 9600 bit/s
• data bits – 8
• stop bits – 1
• parity – none
Printer’s parameters
• port – COM1 or COM2 (the one to which the printer is
connected)
• code page – 852
2. Thermal printer EPSON TM-T20
Communication parameters of port to which the printer is connected
• baud rate – 38400 bit/s
• data bits – 8
• stop bits – 1
• parity – none
Printer’s parameters
• port – COM1 or COM2 (the one to which the printer is
connected)
• code page – 1250
• control codes – 1B742D
or
Printer’s parameters
• port – COM1 or COM2 (the one to which the printer is
connected)
• code page – 852
