002- I bought an ImageWriter II and an ImageWriter LQ.
What are the DIP switch settings for these printers?
While a number of settings are the same; there are some differences between
IW-II and IW-II LQ in DIP switch settings as well as which DIP switches are
present. Unless there is a note attached or a setting is labeled "IW-II" or
"'LQ", the indicated setting applies to both printers.
IW-II DIP switches are located near the left front side, inside the
printer. Lift the cover to get access. 'LQ DIP switches are located near the
left rear of the printer under the rear cover. When changing switches, power
should be OFF.
ImageWriter II & II LQ DIP Switch Settings
In Imagewriter manuals, "SW-1" refers to DIP switch module 1. Each such
module has several individually numbered switches. For example SW-1 #5 refers to
switch #5 on the SW-1 module.
When a switch is UP (pointing toward the back of the printer)
it is open or OFF.
When a switch is DOWN (pointing toward the front of the printer)
it is closed or ON.
When a setting is labeled "usual" this refers to the usual setting
at the time a printer is shipped in the USA.
The settings for SW-1 have to do with printout format. ImageWriter control
codes can override these settings. The codes for a particular setup could be
sent in a character string by your program or an application.
On SW-1 all of the switches are normally open (UP) except #8 which is
closed (DOWN). These settings work for printouts under Appleworks and several
other programs which take care of page breaks. For tasks like listing a program,
doing a hex dump in the monitor, etc. you may want SW-1 #5 to be DOWN for
automatic skipping over perforations between pages.
