Printing

4-6

When you first turn the printer on, the active protocol depends on what port will be 
used for printing.

For Macro 1: If you use the serial port, the active protocol will be the DEC pro-

tocol.
If you use the parallel port, the active protocol will be the Epson 
protocol.
If you use the USB port, the active protocol will be the Epson pro-
tocol.

For Macro 2: If you use the serial port, the active protocol will be the DEC pro-

tocol.
If you use the parallel port, the active protocol will be the IBM pro-
tocol.
If you use the USB port, the active protocol will be the IBM proto-
col.

This printer has three protocols and allows you to set the protocol mode in one of the 
following three ways:  the printer engages one of the three protocols, automatically 
determines the active protocol, or assigns different protocols for parallel, serial or 
USB interfaces.

To change the protocol: Repeatedly press the Protocol button. The DEC and PPX24 
indicators turn on and off.  The combination of lighted indicators shows the protocol 
mode selected, according tothe next table.
