PRINTING OUT INFORMATION
Your Setra scale is designed to print out requested or available information regard-
ing a given batch when connected to a Setra Model 240P or 340P printer (see
Appendix II). To print, use the following procedure:
1. Connect the printer’s AC adapter to a 110-volt outlet.
2. Connect the other end of the adapter to the printer.
3. Connect the appropriate end of the printer connection cord to the printer.
4. Connect the other end of the printer connection cord to the scale.
5. Perform the necessary functions on the scale.
6. Make sure the printer is turned on (as indicated by the printer’s green light). If
the printer is not on, press the black button on the side of the printer.
7. Press the
key on the scale.
8. Repeat Steps 5 through 7 anytime you wish to print out information on a batch.
Note:
When using a printer other than the Setra 240P or 340P, set the baud rate on
your scale to match the printer (see Appendix II). It is possible to select the
information to be printed. See Appendix II on Setup Functions.

Your Setra scale may be used with any Setra Auto Count
™
