The following fields are important:
Flow control: Set your IOLAN+ port flow control to Hardware .
Then set your printer to use ‘DTR Pacing’ or
‘Hardware’ or ‘Ready/Busy’ flow control. Use
the RS-232 cable pinout described below, as this
will save a print job if the printer is turned off or
the cable becomes detached. In your cable, wire
the printer’s pin 20 (DTR) to the IOLAN+ pin 5
(or CTS). Also, cross pins 2 and 3.
