12 Printer and Serial Output
Following is a description of the printer and data outputs of the CA620/530 and
the CA620-CellGuard analyzers. The system has 2 outputs. One is of a Centron-
ics format and the second a serial output with RS232 specifications. A standard
Centronics cable should be used and connected to a proper printer.
The SEIKO DPU 411-typeII /DPU 414, IBM pro-printer compatible, Epson or
HP - PCL printer is supported.
Note:
A printer or serial connection must conform to EN 60950

compatible printer is used,
it is of great importance
for the correct printing
that the actual printer is
supporting the selected
data format. Incorrect
printing might follow if an
improper format or printer
is selected.
