Selecting the Print Density (DIP Switches 2-3/2-4)
Selecting the BUSY Status
With DIP switch 2-1, you can select conditions for invoking a BUSY state as either of the following:
When the receive buffer is full
When the receive buffer is full or the printer is offline
Printer BUSY Condition and Status of DIP Switch 2-1
Function SW 2-3 SW 2-4
Do not set ON ON
Print density (standard) OFF OFF
Print density (medium) ON OFF
Print density (dark) OFF ON
If the print density is set to “Medium” or “Dark” level, print speed may be reduced.
The print density can be set with DIP switches (2-3/2-4) or the software settings. (See
"Software
Settings" on page 60.)
In either case above, the printer enters the BUSY state after power is turned on (including resetting
with the interface) and when a self-test is being run.
