DIP SWITCH SETTINGS

Note: The printer’s power must be turned OFF before making any DIP switch changes.

CAUTION: If you have been printing, allow the print head to cool down before touching it.

To set the DIP switches:
1. Open the printer cover.
2. Remove the ribbon cassette.
3. Manually push the print head to the right side of the printer.
4. Grasp the fin of the compartment cover on the mechanical frame. Slide it to the left, and remove it.

After setting the DIP switches, replace the compartment cover, re-install the ribbon cassette and replace the printer cover.

The DIP switch settings are read only after the initialization process when the printer’s power is turned ON.

DIP SWITCH SETTINGS

The switches are located at the back of the printer behind the plastic lid.

Perform all DIP switch selections with the power OFF.

The DIP switches are read after the initialization process by turning the power switch on. When shipped from the factory, all switches except international character switches are turned OFF.

Note 1: Standard and IBM modes are selected only by using DIP switch 1-5. There is no control code to designate Standard or IBM mode.

Note 2: In Standard mode, DIP switch 1-6 determines whether a download character is valid or not. When a download character is valid, the communication buffer is reduced to 8.7K bytes from 10.3K bytes.

DIP SWITCH SETTINGS

The following functions can be selected by using the DIP switches located at the back of the printer. The DIP switches are read after an initialization process. This is done by either turning the power switch on, by inputting a RES signal, or by input of Secondary Address 10 in the OPEN command. The plastic cover should be removed to change DIP swich settings.

Note: When DIP switch 3 is set to OFF to select the ASCII mode, cursor up/down, reverse on/off, and quote commands are invalid and DIP switch 2 selection changes as follows.

DIP SWITCH SETTINGS

The DIP switches are located at the back of the printer. They are covered by a small plastic insert. For most uses, these switches can be left as they were set at the factory. Each switch has two positions: when the switch is moved down, it if OFF; when it is moved up, it is ON. The DIP switches are read after the initialization process either by turning the power switch on or inputting the INITIAL signal of the parallel interface.

Note 1:
Standard and IBM modes are selected only by using DIP switch 1-5. There is no control code to designate Standard or IBM mode.

Note 2:
In Standard mode, the 1.5 K-bytes of RAM area is used as either download area or communication buffer. Therefore, when the DIP switch 1-6 is turned off, the printer has the 1.5 K-bytes communication buffer and when on, no communication buffer is available.
