print drivers. The only drivers Seikosha supplies are for special

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.

Table 1
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.
