Chapter 2 — Connecting the Printer
38 PF8d and PF8t Desktop Printer User’s Guide
Connecting the Printer to Your PC
Depending on the model of PF8 printer you have, you can connect the
printer to your PC using a serial cable, USB cable, or parallel cable.
After you connect your printer to your PC, you can send commands
to your printer using a terminal emulation program, such as
HyperTerminal.
Connecting the Printer Through the Serial Port
You can use a serial connection to communicate with your PC and
run PrintSet, LabelShop, or InterDriver. You can also use the serial
port to send commands directly to the printer through a terminal
application, such as HyperTerminal.
The serial communication parameters control communications
between your printer and PC. On your printer, the serial port is
referred to as “uart1:”.
Make sure the serial port settings on your printer match the settings
on your PC. The default settings on your printer are: 9600 baud rate,
8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control.
To connect your printer to a PC through the serial port
1 Connect the serial cable that ships with your printer to your
printer and PC.
2 If necessary, change the PC serial port configuration to match
your printer. On your PC, select
Start > All Programs >
Accessories > Communications > HyperTerminal .
3 If this is the first time you are connecting to your printer, select a
name for your connection and click
OK . The Connect To window
appears.
If you have a previous HyperTerminal connection to your printer
saved, click
Cancel . Select File > Open and open your existing
connection. Continue with Step 8.
Note: The PF8d with internal Ethernet support does not have a
parallel port.
