Press the Z key. One of the following serial
parameters is indicated (Baud rate for example).
Pressing the U or V key toggles through the serial
parameters as follows. To change the serial parameter,
press the ENTER key. Use the U or V key to change
the value or selection.
For example, to change baud rate from 9600 to
115200, display the baud rate menu following the
above procedure. When the display shows baud rate,
9600 (bps), press the ENTER key. A blinking
question mark (?) appears.
Press the U or V key to scroll through values. When
115200 is displayed, press the ENTER key. Press the
MODE key to exit the menu selection.
Note
Some computers may not be able to handle a
baud rate of 115200 bps. If you set the baud
rate to 115200 and encounter communication
problems, select a lower baud rate.
3.5.3 Changing Network Interface
Parameters
The printer has a built-in network interface which supports
TCP/IP, NetWare and EtherTalk protocols. In addition, you
can install an optional network interface card in the printer’s
extension slot (OPT).
To adjust the printer for networking parameters of the current
network, using the operator panel, you can:
• Activate or deactivate TCP/IP, NetWare, and AppleTalk
• Activate or deactivate DHCP
• Enter IP address, subnet mask address, and default
gateway address
• Determine whether to print a network status pages
automatically when the printer is turned on
To confirm or change networking parameters, proceed as
follows:

If the optional network interface card is installed in
the printer, Option will be displayed. The setting
procedure is basically the same even in this case.
