Logical Connection
NOTE: Once you have connected the printer to the computer, you must check
that the serial interface parameters (see Chapter 4) are compatible with any
other specific instructions in the operating environment / application program
you are using.
Adjusting the Communication Protocol on the Serial Interface
Once you have installed the optional serial interface, you must pair up the
printer's protocol with the one in your system. If you decide to adapt the
computer to the printer's setting, use the command:
copy COMn:[baud],[parity],[8],[stop bits],p
where "n" is the number (normally 1) of the addressed interface board, baud
needs only a two digit number and "8" is the fixed value of the word length.
High-end applications and user shells have their own, easy-to-handle, device
drivers for these tasks (see the specific documentation).
