Note:
If your printer is equipped with the optional endorsement function, you also need to install the
endorsement ribbon cassette, which is smaller than the standard ribbon cassette. If your printer isn’t
equipped with the optional endorsment function, you don’t need to install it.
When you use this printer with serial interface, you have to adjust the communication settings.
See “Customizing” on page 3-16 for how to set them.
