Chapter 7 : Deploying a Printer Project
You cannot download firmware over a serial connection. When you
establish a serial connection, you receive the following warning
message. This is simply a reminder that you cannot download firmware
over a serial connection. You can do everything else you want over a
serial connection to manage and control your printer from 123 Print.
If you want to download firmware, be sure to establish a parallel or
network connection with the printer.
When the printer is successfully connected, the connection status on
the bottom left-hand corner of the main 123 Print window shows, in
green letters, that the printer is Connected.
If the connection is over an Ethernet network, the connection status
message gives the IP address of the connected printer, such as
Connected IP:172.16.32.21.
Parallel port and serial connections result in similar connection status
messages, such as Connected LPT1 and Connected COM1 38400
(where 38400 represents the baud rate of the serial connection).
Printer controls Notice that a number of icons have become active with the successful
connection to the printer. The functions of these icons are described in
the following sections.
