6400 Line Matrix Printers Setup Guide, Cabinet and Pedestal Models
1. From the printer operator panel, under Twinax menu, make sure
the printer address matches the printer address you selected from
the table above. You can select addresses ranging from 0 through
6; the default address is 1.
2. If the IPDS feature is not installed, you must choose to emulate
either a 5225 or 4234–2 printer from the Twinax Interface menu,
under Printer Emulation. The default is 4234–2 printer
emulation.
3. If the IPDS feature is installed, you must choose to emulate a
4234–12 from the IPDS menu, under IPDS Emulation Mode.
The default is 4234 printer emulation. See the IPDS
Programmer’s Reference Manual for information on the IPDS
Emulation Mode values.
4. Turn off printer.
5. Attach the twinax cable from your printer to your host
workstation.
6. Turn the printer back on. System/36’s auto configuration
program will query the printer and configure the host system
software to recognize the printer.
NOTE: If you do not want to use the system printer configuration that is
created by System/36’s auto configuration program, you can change
the printer configuration values as described below:
