Serial RS-232 Interface
e serial RS-232 channel is intended for running the ESim protocol
described in the Intermec ESim v6.XX, Programmer’s Reference Manual. It
is not suited for the Intermec InterDriver driver.
e RS-232 communication setup is variable by means of the Y com-
mand (see Intermec ESim v6.XX, Programmer’s Reference Manual).
Use the Test Mode to check the printer's present setup (bold characters
indicate default setup).
Baud rate: 1200, 2400, 9600, or 19200

Stop bits: 1 or 2
Flow control: XON/XOFF and DSR/CTS
Note: No serial communication cable is included in the deliv-
ery unless specifically ordered. For pinout specifications, please

USB Interface
e EasyCoder PC4 supports USB v1.1 (also called USB 2.0 full speed).
To use the USB interface for printing from a PC, you need a special
Intermec USB printer driver installed in your PC.
e printer is a so called “self-powered device.” We recommend that you
only connect one printer to each USB port on the host, either directly or
via a hub. Other devices, like a keyboard and a mouse, can be connected
to the same hub. If you need to connect more than one Intermec USB
printer to a host, you should use different USB ports.
Using a standard USB Class A/B cable, connect the Class A plug to your
PC or hub and the Class B plug to your printer.
e USB interface is similar to the serial RS-232 channel, intended for
running the ESim protocol.
Note: No USB communication cable is included in the delivery.
