If you are doing ASCII printing, you can use USB or a serial interface. Both are fast enough to handle
the smaller amount of data being sent. But if you are doing Graphic printing, USB may be the better
choice due to its higher speed, and serial may increase the time to complete a printout to an
unacceptably long period.

Due to the wide variety of options possible, it is necessary to be able to identify what features are
included in each printer. Some features, such as the cutter or PPE sensor, are visually obvious.
Other features such as software configuration and extended warranty, are not. Therefore, this data
is stored as a code in each printer when it is manufactured.
