Chapter 3 — Configuring the Printer
78 PM4i Mid-Range Printer User’s Manual
Configuring Your Printer With Commands Sent From Your PC
You can change configuration parameters by sending commands
directly to the printer using your terminal program (HyperTerminal)
and a serial or network connection.
If your printer uses the Fingerprint language, you use the SETUP
command, followed by the node, subnode, and parameters setting.
This Fingerprint example sets the media setting to labels with gaps:
SETUP "MEDIA,MEDIA TYPE,LABEL (w GAPS)"
If your printer uses the IPL language, you would send this command:
<STX><SI>T1<ETX>
To see the node, subnode, and parameters for Fingerprint and IPL, see
Appendix C, “Fingerprint and IPL Setup Menus” on page 141.
Fingerprint automatically sends feedback to HyperTerminal as you
type. If you want to see what you are typing with IPL, you need to
perform the following procedure.
To see IPL commands as you type
1 From the HyperTerminal menu, select File > Properties > the
Settings tab.
2 Click the ASCII Setup button.
3 Select Echo typed characters locally.
4 Click OK twice.
For more information on how to change configuration settings, see
either the Intermec Fingerprint Command Reference Manual or the
IPL Command Reference Manual.
