2.0 INSTALLATION
2.1 Installation Procedure
1. Read 3.1 to 3.5.2 on Operation and Configuration.
2. Press the latches on the lower front cabinet sides & rotate the cabinet upwards.
3. Remove the foam blocks on each side of the carriage.
4. Install the ribbon cartridge (See 3.1)
5. Connect the interface cable. (See 3.11.3 for cabling information).
6. Check that the power switch on the printer rear is off (“0” side depressed).
Connect the line cord between the printer and an electrical outlet. The printer
accepts 110VAC to 240VAC nominal input. If a line cord was not supplied with
the printer procure an IEC HAR line cord that has an IEC 320-C13 style
connector and the appropriate HAR plug for your country.
7. Turn on the power switch. READY should be displayed. If the display is not
legible adjust the contrast knob on top of the mechanism beneath the cabinet.
8. Configure printer and interface parameters (See 3.5-3.5.2) using 92 and 93
FUNCT. Common variations to the default settings are a higher baud rate for
better throughput, EMULATION MODE I for Proprinter emulation and
PROTOCOL = XON/XOF for software that does not use DTR hardware
handshaking. Function 94 settings are factory set for a specific printer and
should not be changed.
9. Perform a local print test (See 3.8) with 95 FUNCT.
10. If host printing is incorrect, check that 93 FUNCT Communication Parameters
match the host parameters and review all 92 FUNCT Printer Parameters.
