If
it
is
overprinted, make a small adjustment to the printer
so
that
it
automatically inserts a line feed at the end
of
a line,
-
because
your
computer does not supply the line feed.
(See
page
18 for details.)
Serial Interfaces
-
The
optional
High-Speed RS232-C serial
interface
can run
up
to
9,600
baud
using Printer
Ready/Busy
protocol.
And
the
$uper-
Speed
board
has a
maximum
speed
of
19,200
baud
with
a
choice
-
of
either
printer
Ready/Busy
or
X-ON/X-OFF
protocol.
Before connecting
your
interface cable, make sure both
your
printer
-
and computer are
off before inserting the cable. Important to note
if
you
are
using a serial cable, you are probably required to
use
an
OPEN and
PR
# 1 statement in BASIC programming instead
of
LPRINT. Consult
your
computer documentation for details.
Connecting a Serial Interface
1.
Insert the 25-pin plug in the receptacle at the right on the
printer back.
2. Tighten the
mounting
screw on each side
of
the connector shell
so
that
it
is
securely attached to the printer.
3. Insert the other end
of
the cable in
your
computer. You may
also be able to connect the cable to another peripheral device,
such
as
a disk drive,
if
your
equipment accommodates "daisy-
chain"
connection.
