Chapter 3. Configuring the Printer
IMPORTANT: Configuration directly affects printer operation. Do not try to
change the configuration of your printer until you are thoroughly
familiar with the procedures in this section.
Overview
To print data, the printer must respond correctly to signals and commands
received from the host computer. Configuration is the process of matching the
printer operating characteristics to those of the host computer and to specific tasks,
such as printing labels, or printing on different sizes of paper. The characteristics
that define the printer response to signals and commands received from the host
computer are called configuration parameters.
You can configure the printer by pressing operator panel keys or by sending
control codes from the host computer. This chapter explains how to use the
operator panel to change individual parameters and save them as a custom
configuration.
Your programmers reference manuals provide information about control codes.
The Configurations
A configuration consists of a group of parameters, such as line spacing and forms
length. Your printer contains the following configurations:
v
Four preloaded configurations that have been customized for printer setup.
v
The factory default configuration. It can be loaded, but it cannot be altered.
v
Four configurations that you can customize for unique print job requirements.
The process of creating customized configurations is explained in “Changing
Parameters” on page 30.
