Setting Up Your Printer
22 DMX 400/430 Operator’s Manual
To connect the Printer to EBCDIC devices, or devices with any
other data encoding standard, a protocol converter must be
used. A protocol converter translates the bit patterns of one
standard to the bit patterns of another standard. Some protocol
converters are also interface converters, combining two
functions into one box. Many of these products are available
from the manufacturer of your computer equipment or your
local reseller. Please note that additional commands may be
needed to control the protocol converter you select for your data
interface.
