The Serial Printer Port
HP JetAdmin does not support serial printer ports. If you must change 
the default settings of the serial printer port of the AXIS 5600, it is 
recommended that you use the AXIS NetPilot. This will become 
necessary when you are installing a printer on your serial port. Follow 
the steps below to change the serial port parameters using AXIS 
NetPilot.
1. Start the AXIS NetPilot.
2. Select your AXIS 5600 and click Install on the AXIS NetPilot 
toolbar. Select with current configuration.
3. Your AXIS 5600 has been transferred to the ‘Network Print 
Servers’ folder. Select your AXIS 5600 and click the Property 
button on the AXIS NetPilot toolbar.
4. Select the Printer Ports tab.
5. Select COM1 from the Printer Port drop-down list.
6. Select XON/XOFF from the Handshake Protocol drop-down list, 
set the Baud Rate to 38400 and select 1 stop bit. Click OK.
The settings in step 6 varies between different printer models. Please 
refer to your printer documentation.
If your network supports TCP/IP you can also change the serial port 
parameters by using the AXIS 5600 Web interface.
