ADVANCED OPERATION GUIDE
RS-232C Cable Connection
Connecting the Printer to the Computer
Make sure that both computer and printer are powered off.
1
Discharge static electricity from your body by touching a metal object such
as a doorknob.
2
Plug the end (printer side) of the RS-232C cable into the printer’s serial
interface connector and screw it on securely.
3
Plug the other end of the cable into the computer’s serial interface
connector.
4
Power on the printer.
5
The printer’s parameters are set at the factory as follows:
•
Baud rate = 9600 bps, data bits (character length) = 8, stop bits = 1,
parity = none
•
The two RS-232C protocols are XON/XOFF and DTR. The printer
executes both of these protocols simultaneously, using positive logic
for DTR.
If you are not sure about the printer’s current parameter settings, reset
them to the values shown above (i.e., baud rate = 9600 bps, etc.). You can
perform parameter settings from the operation panel. Refer to
Changing
Serial Interface Parameters on page 2-31
.

On the computer, set the same parameters as that of the printer. Most
computers allow you to do this by DIP switch settings that should be made
before power is turned on.
