P15-2 Mobile Printer CPCLProgramming Manual
NETWORK LPD. In order to communicate with the
printer, choose the protocol that the printer is configured
for. If you are unsure as to which protocol the printer is
setup for, turn the printer off and while holding the feed
key down turn the printer back on. This will print the
printer’s 2-key report. The protocol that the printer is
configured to use is listed under the RF-LAN section. If
the printer is using a Symbol MOM card choose the
NETWORK SYMBOL MOM CARD option. This is a TCP
protocol that does not close the network connection.
In order to talk to a network printer the IP address and
port must also be entered. The printer’s current IP ad-
dress and port are also listed on the 2-key report.
Baudrate allows selection of the rate at which data is
sent over either COM port. Baud rates range from 2400
to 115200 b.p.s.
Checking the Set Printer Baud Rate box allows Label
Vista to automatically set the Baud rate for the program
and the printer.
Once Communications have been established between
Label Vista and the printer you can send files to the
printer with the various “Send” options:.
1 Send File
Downloads a file to the printer. Clicking on the
“Browse” button allows the user to select a file to be
downloaded via the standard Windows interface. A bar
at the bottom of the dialog box monitors downloading
process. This interface is common to all of the file
download utilities.
2 Send Font
Downloads a font file (.CSF, .CPF extensions) to the
printer. (Refer to the Fonts Menu selection for more
information.)
3 Send Picture
Downloads a picture file (.PCX) to the printer. Note:
Any picture file placed in the label with the Picture tool
must also be downloaded to the printer by means of
this command.
