This setting applies only when the serial port is used. The handshake
protocol of the printer must match the handshake protocol of the host
computer for communication to take place. Select the handshake protocol
that matches the one being used by the host computer.

Set Protocol
Protocol is a type of error checking system. Depending on the selection, an

computer. Further details on protocol can be found in the ZPL II
Programming Guide.
Default Value: NONE
Selections: NONE, ZEBRA, ACK_NAK
Note • ZEBRA is the same as ACK_NAK, except that ZEBRA
response messages are sequenced. If

Set Network ID
This parameter assigns a unique number to the printer when the printer is
operating in an RS422/485 multi-drop network environment (an external
RS422/485 adapter is required). This gives the host computer the means to
address a specific printer. This does not affect TCP/IP or IPX networks.
