Paxar 9840CL Manual Do Utilizador

••

Before the printer can accept print jobs from the host, you must:

♦

 Connect the communication cable to the printer and to the host.

♦

 Set the communication values on the printer to match those at the host.  (Only required

if you are using the serial port.)

Make sure the printer is off before connecting the cable to the communication port.
Ask your System Administrator which method to use to communicate with the host:

♦

 Serial Communication

9 to 25 pin cable
25 to 25 pin cable

♦

 Parallel Communication

IEEE-1284 or Centronics mode cable

See "Setting DIP Switches," for more information.

Connect the communications cable to the appropriate
port on your computer.  If you are unsure where to
connect the cable, consult your computer
documentation.
Note:  It is highly recommended that you use the
cable supplied with your printer.  Paxar cannot be
responsible for communications problems when a non-Paxar cable is used.

Connect the other end of the communication cable into the appropriate port on the printer.
Secure the cable with the connecting screws (serial) or spring clips (parallel).

If you are communicating with the host through the serial port, make sure the printer's
communication values match those at the host. The factory default values are:  9600 Baud,
8 bit data frame Word Length, 1 Stop Bit, no Parity, and XON/XOFF Flow Control.
