The printer incorporates a number of configurable options, each of which has a number of settings. The default settings of the standard printer are detailed
in the table below in bold. To change the setting of any option, follow the procedure below:
1. Ensure the printer is OFF.
2. Press and hold the Mode button whilst powering the printer ON. After about five seconds, the Status light will flash five times to show that the printer is in
configuration mode. Release the Mode button.
3. Press the Mode button the same number of times as the option that you wish to change (for example to change baud rate, press the Mode button twice).
4. After a short delay, the Status light will flash the same number of times as the option that you have chosen. If you have made a mistake at this stage,
simply wait: after a delay, the printer will power-on without changing any options.
5. To proceed with configuration, press the Mode button the same number of times as the setting that you wish to make (for example, to set the baud rate to
19200, press the Mode button four times).
6. After a short delay, the Status light will flash the same number of times as the setting that you have made.
7. After a further delay, the printer will power-on with the new setting.
