NETWORK ID
Setting Network ID: Press the (–) key to move to the next digit
position, press the (+) key to increase the value of the digit.
Default: 000
Range: 000 - 999
Network ID is used to assign a unique number to a printer used
in an RS-422/RS-485 network. This gives the host computer the
means to address a specific printer. If the printer is used in a
network, you must select a network ID number. This does not
affect TCP/IP or IPX networks.
COMMUNICATIONS
Setting Communications Mode: Press the (+) or (–) key to
display other choices.
Default: Normal mode
Selections: Normal mode, diagnostics
The communication diagnostics mode is a troubleshooting tool
for checking the interconnection between the printer and the host
computer. When “diagnostics” is selected, all data sent from the
host computer to the printer is printed as straight ASCII hex
characters. The printer prints all characters received including
control codes, like CR (carriage return). A sample printout is
shown in Figure 35 on page 89.
NOTES on diagnostic printouts:
• FE indicates a framing error.
• OE indicates an overrun error.
• PE indicates a parity error.
• NE indicates noise.
For any errors, check that your communication parameters are
correct. Set the print width equal to or less than the label width
used for the test. See page 48 for more information.
