Service Manual 2-21
Installing the Printer and Drivers 2
When you change the settings for the serial port, the baud rate DIP Switch 7 on the
printer's back panel must be down before the changes will take effect.
1. Use a text editor or word processor to modify the DEVPARAMS.PS file. (Be
sure to save the file as a text-only file.) Substitute the values you want for the
values used in the sample DEVPARAM.PS file. The possible values for each
parameter are listed in the following table. The values are case-sensitive;
they must be entered exactly as shown.
2. Use the DOS COPY command to send the DEVPARAM.PS file to the printer;
for example: COPY DEVPARAM.PS COM1: (Substitute the appropriate
port for COM1:.)
