Stop Bits
Pressing
YES
prints out the present stop bit status:
•
1 Bit (factory default)
•
2 Bits
The printer uses the stop bit(s) to detect the space in-between data bytes.
The stop bit follows the parity bit if parity is enabled.
1 Bit: One bit is sufficient for the printer and most modern computers.
2 Bits: Consider using two stop bits if you transmit at a relatively high
baud using an older, slower computer.
Input Buffer Size
Pressing
YES
prints out the present setting:
•
Maximum (no user-defined characters) (factory default)
•
Minimum (user-defined characters OK)
The printer contains a 32K RAM, part of which is available as an input
buffer. The input buffer is used for storing print data, graphics, and user-
defined characters. If you download and retain user-defined characters,
you decrease the amount of memory available for input print data.
Maximum (no user-defined characters): All of the input buffer is reserved
for input print data. User-defined, downloaded (custom) characters are
rejected.
*
Minimum (user-defined characters OK): The minimum amount of space
assigned to the input buffer for print data is reduced to 532 bytes. The
rest is used to accommodate custom characters downloaded from the
*
Maximizing the input buffer size does not affect the use of graphic fonts, such as TrueType fonts. The
restriction only applies to custom characters downloaded using universal control commands.
