Communication settings
The Communication settings menu is used to set the communication specifications when a personal
computer or printer, etc., are connected.
The default setting is [Standard].
Four other [Standard Settings] are also available that are the most frequently used Communication
setting combinations.
Selecting one of the combinations from [Standard Setting 1] through [Standard Setting 5] enables all
of the baud rate (communication speed), parity (bit length), stop bit, handshake, and data format and
delimiter parameters to be set with a single operation.
