Changing Communication Parameters (^A)
Use this command to change the printer’s
• baud rate
• parity
• word length
• flow control.
The printer always uses one stop bit. The new values take effect immediately.
After downloading this command, change the communication parameters on the
host to the new settings.
NOTE:This command assumes the communication parameters for the printer and
the host already match. If they don’t already match, set the printer’s
communication parameters manually. See the Operator’s Handbook for
information.
