Switch position 4 defines the handshaking method in serial

interface. When it is set to ON, the printer transmits an “XOFF”

for busy and sends an “XON” for not busy. When it is set to OFF,

the printer signifies the busy status over hardware signals that can

be detected by the host as “DSR” or “CTS”. When parallel

interface is used, both switch positions 3 and 4 should be set to

OFF.

For switch position 5, if the switch is set to ON, the busy

signal is sent to host only when input buffer is full. When it is set

to OFF, busy signal is sent to host whenever an off line status

occurs. Therefore, signals including the paper near end detect will

generate busy signal to the host. Consequently, the printing may

be stopped even when there is still a long way to go before the

paper roll is actually exhausted.

For switch position 6, when it is set to OFF, there will be a

20 mm paper feed before cutting when software does not define

this point and there will be further 10 mm paper after cutting to

prevent paper jam. Before setting this switch to ON, please make

sure that your software will take care of enough paper feed for the

paper jam prevention issue.

For switch position 8, when it is set to ON in the field, the

printer maybe subject to unpredictable damages and must be

strictly prevented.

The factory default for each position is listed below:

Switch Position 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
