INTERNAL SWITCH 
There is an extra internal 4 position DIP switch in PP7000-
II for more technical settings. To access these setup, please first 
turn off the printer power and disconnect every cable from the 
printer. Remove 4 screws from bottom of printer and remove the 
plastic bottom cover with the power switch pressed. The 4 
position DIP switch seats beside the 8 position DIP switch for 
setup window with the switch position counting starts from the 
nearest side to the 8 position DIP switch. 
This 4 position DIP switch works as following:

For switch position 1, when it is set to ON, the printer runs 
in high speed mode. This is the default setting as the printer is 
delivered. However, depending on the print content (f.i. the 
printer is used for printing bar codes that have to be dark enough), 
it could be wiser to set the printer to work in power saving mode 
by changing the switch to OFF. The printer could run smoother 
and in effect faster due to elimination of motor brake application. 
Switch position 2 is usually set to OFF for use with 80 mm 
paper width. When the printer is installed with the 58 mm paper 
guide adaptor for use with the paper roll of 58 mm width, the 
switch should be set to ON in PP7000-II. 
Switch position 3 is usually set to OFF for ESC/POS 
command application that prints at 512 dots / line. Only technical 
users shall set this switch to ON and make the printer work in the 
576 dots / line format.
