Chapter 5 — Setting up the Printer

Changing Configuration Settings
The complete list of setup options can be found in Appendix C.
Depending on the communication method you use with your
printer, you can set configuration settings with different
methods.
Using PrintSet 4
The recommended way to set your printer’s configuration is to
use the included PrintSet 4 program. PrintSet 4 can
communicate with your printer either via a serial cable or a
network connection. You will find PrintSet 4 on the Printer
Companion CD, and on the Intermec website. This printer
configuration program works on computers equipped with
Windows 98 and up, and allows you to easily change all of the
setup parameters. It also includes setup wizards, which guide you
through common configuration tasks.
Using the Printer’s Home Page
If you have a network option and the printer is available on the
network, you can browse to the printer’s home page: Just enter
the printer’s IP number in your browser’s adress field. There you
can enter the configuration page and change the settings. You will
need the printer’s administrator username and password.
Using the Command Line
You can change setup parameters by sending commands directly
through your terminal program (either through serial or network
connection). The Fingerprint command to use is
SETUP, and
should be followed by the node and its values you want to set.
For example:
SETUP “MEDIA,MEDIA TYPE,LABEL (w GAPS)”
On printers running IPL, the same effect is attained by executing
the following string of commands:
<STX><SI>T1<ETX>
Note: IPL users should first verify that they have the
correct hyperterminal settings. See the screenshot on
the next page.
