Be careful when using this feature. If you forget what the control
characters were changed to, print a test label. The test label lists
the current control characters. See "Printing a Test Label," in
Chapter 8 for more information.

Use the communication settings packet (F) to set the baud rate,
word length, stop bits, parity, and flow control for serial
communications. To set parallel communications, see "Using
Parallel Communications." Changing the communication settings
takes approximately two seconds. Communications sent during
this interval will be lost. Make sure the host communication
values match the values on the printer.
