Send this file to the printer by selecting File then selecting Print. The
printer will not print anything but the ready light will blink on and off. Once
a solid Green ready light is visible, cycle the power to the printer. To verify
the settings have taken effect, perform a self test and verify the settings are
now set in the printer. For more instructions on performing a self test, please
refer to Chapter 2 of this User’s Guide.
SERIAL COMMUNICATION
If a serial port will be used for printing to the C Series printer, a custom
Cognitive null-modem serial cable is required. Refer to the accessories section
listed in Chapter 10 of this document or the Printer Product Guide included
on the Companion CD for ordering information.
The default serial communications settings are: 9600, N, 8, 1.
PARALLEL COMMUNICATION
If a parallel port will be used for printing to the C Series printer, a custom
Cognitive uni-directional cable is required. Refer to the accessories section
listed in Chapter 10 of this document or the Printer Product Guide included
on the Companion CD for ordering information.
When printing in parallel the port must be set up as an LPT port, not an ECP
port. If the port is configured as ECP, printing may be inconsistent.
