serial communication 
4800, 9600, 19200, 38400   
(2400 is canceled, and 38400 is 
added.) 
38400 bps is available when both 
DIP SW1-7 and 1-8 is On.

5. Condition to release the 
receive buffer BUSY 
state 
Sets with the DIP SW2-5 
(Refer to 
1) 
Fixed to the condition as below: 
Except the receive buffer full 
(BUSY). 
The receive buffer full indicates that 
the remaining space in the receive 
buffer drops 16 bytes and it 
remains until the space in the 
receive buffer increases 26 bytes. 
6. External power supply

Models with the power supply 
included as standard or without the 
power supply are available.   
Packaged power supply: PS-180 ,

  Definition of “receive buffer full” 
 When the receive buffer capacity is specified to 4 KB (DIP SW1-2 is Off): 
  If the DIP SW2-5 is off, when the remaining space in the receive buffer drops to 128 bytes, 
the printer status becomes “buffer full” and it remains “buffer full” until the space in the 
receive buffer increases to 256 bytes. 
  If the DIP SW2-5 is on, when the remaining space in the receive buffer drops to 128 bytes, 
the printer status becomes “buffer full” and it remains “buffer full” until the space in the 
receive buffer increases to 138 bytes. 
 When the receive buffer capacity is specified to 45 bytes (DIP SW1-2 is On): 
  Regardless of the DIP SW2-5 setting, when the remaining space in the receive buffer drops 
to 16 bytes, the printer status becomes “buffer full” and it remains “buffer full” until the space 
in the receive buffer increases to 26 bytes. 
 
  The printer ignores the data received when the remaining space in the receive buffer   
is 0 bytes.
