Configuring the printer's serial port for a PC
Use the PostScript command file DEVPARAM.PS (also located on the Utilities
diskette) to modify the printer’s serial port settings.
To modify DEVPARAM.PS you should be familiar with the PostScript
setdevparams
command. This file lets you configure the printer's serial port.
The following example sets flow control to Xon/Xoff, parity to none, data bits to 8,
stop bits to 2 and the baud rate to 9600. In the example below, the changes are
persistent across print jobs and across power cycles; they remain in effect until
specifically changed again.
Note
CTRL-D is the ASCII End-Of-Text (EOT) character.

When you change the settings for the serial port, the baud rate DIP Switch 7 on
the printer's back panel must be down before the changes will take effect.
