word_length 8 8 bits (use only for N parity)
7 7 bits (use only for E parity)
flow_control X XON/XOFF
C DTR (the PC default)
D DTR (the PC default)
NOTE:Default values are listed in bold.
If you change the flow control from DTR to XON/XOFF, the printer sends an XON
character after it reconfigures the serial port.
NOTE:If the flow control parameters for the host and printer do not match, the
LED indicator will flash 1/4 second blinking amber and the printer will not
respond to the host. Press [Feed] to clear the printer’s memory and reset
the printer, and set the correct flow control parameters. See the Operator’s
Handbook for more information.

length, and XON/XOFF flow control.
