Note: The printer's power must be turned OFF before making any DIP switch changes.

CAUTION: If you have been printing, allow the print head to cool down before touching it.

The switches are located at the rear of the printer next to the input connectors. When shipped from the factory all switches are turned OFF.

Note: Standard and IBM modes are selected by DIP switch 2-4 only. There is no control code to designate Standard or IBM mode.
