the port setting of the printer driver to that of the printer.
• When doing hardware flow control (when setting [DTR Control] to [Active-High] or [Active-Low]), the
cable must be connected correctly to the signaling channel.
• When not doing hardware flow control, set [DTR Control] to [Fix-High] or [Fix-Low]. When using the
