2-3) HEX Dump Print
Turn on the power after placing the Dip SW1 number 8 to ON position. After printing as
[HEX DUMP MODE], it will print all receiving datas to 16 hexadecimal data for all
receiving datas. This would be useful when developing an application because this
notifies the transmission status.
Prints if 12 digits is received.
Data under 12 digits will print when you press the feed button.
Control Code (Below 1F16) prints as “.”
Prints as “^” when 8016 or above.

2-4) On-board Update
Printer program is easily updateable from PC with the Flash Memory equipped.
When updating, you should be well informed of the following order before executing.
1)Turn the power off and back on. (Dip SW manipulation is unnecessary)
2)Check the connectivity of Printer and the communication cable.
(You can save time updating by using USB cable)
3) Run the update after configuring the model name and communication port through the
provided update program.
The ERROR LED will turn off and it will turn back on few seconds later, and the update
will start when the LED starts flashing rapidly.
Do not turn off the printer until the update is complete
4) Update Complete notification will display when the process is complete.
※If the ERROR LED flashes slowly during the update, then the process is in error, so
you need to terminate the update program, and repeat the process from the direction
number 1) after checking the abnormalities on the device.
5) The printer will reset automatically after the update and will return to the ready to use
status.

※How to run in Initial Configuration Mode
When you turn the printer’s power on while pressing down on the FEED button for
more than 2 seconds, the PE LED and ERROR LED will simultaneously turn on / flash
and run the initial configuration mode. (9600 BPS, PARITY NONE, HARDWARE
HANDSHAKE)
2)After running the initial configuration mode, it will print as the following.
[Menu]
1.Baud rate
2.Parity
3.Flow control
4.Hex Dump Mode
5.Print Density
6.Auto Melody
7.Cut Mode
8.Auto Buzzer
9.Print Speed
Select and then Enter...
Enter : Press the feed button once for
more than 1second.
Select: Press the feed button many times
less than 1second as menu number.
Exit : Turn power off then on.
Press the FEED button more than 1 seconds to confirm (Enter) less than 1 seconds to
select menu. For example, if you’d like to change the Auto Melody option in the list
number 6, press the FEED button less than 1 seconds 6 times, and more than 1 seconds
