Chapter 2 — Installing the Printer
EasyCoder PD42 Printer User’s Guide

Connecting the Printer Through the Serial Port
You can use the serial connection with either LabelShop or the
Intermec InterDriver. You can also use it to send commands
directly to the printer through a terminal connection, for
instance with Telnet. The printer’s default serial communication
settings are: baud rate 9600, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit and
no flow control. Appendixes C and D contain information about
serial communication setup parameters for IPL and Fingerprint,
respectively.
Connecting the Printer Through the Parallel Port
You can use the parallel connection with LabelShop or the
Intermec InterDriver. The parallel port supports Windows plug-
n-play and additional status reporting through IEEE 1284 nibble
ID mode. Cable is not included with the kit.
Connecting the Printer to a Network
With an optional EasyLAN Ethernet card installed in your
PD42, you can set it up as a network printer. The printer is set to
automatically retreive an IP number from the network (DHCP)
once it is turned on. You can use the network connection either
with LabelShop or the Intermec InterDriver. You can also use it
to directly send commands to the printer through a terminal
connection (Telnet), or you can send instructions via FTP. For
terminal connections, it utilizes the Raw TCP protocol through
port 9100.
To connect the PD42 to your network
1
Plug a connected Ethernet cable into the Ethernet port in the
rear of the printer.
2
Turn the printer on. Wait for the blue Ready-to-Work LED to
stop blinking, and for the message “IP configuration error” to
disappear from the screen.
3
Enter
i-mode
by pressing ( ).
i-mode cycles through the interfaces installed on the printer
in five-second intervals and displays them on the screen. The
IP address is displayed under
net1:
in Fingerprint and
net
in
IPL.
