2.2Paper Installation
POS58Ⅳadopts57.5±0.5mm width thermal paper.
The steps of thermal paper installation are as the following:
1.When there is no paper in the print head, please don’t press【FEE 】button ,avoiding to
influence the printing head life; as figure2-3，hold down【PUSH】，so open the paper case
and change paper.

2.3 Interface Connection
2.3.1
Serial Interface Connection
The serial interface of SP-POS58 Ⅳ printer is compatible with RS232C standard,
supports RTS/CTS handshaking protocol, it uses B25 socket (orifice),the pin order of
the serial port is as Fig.2-4 shows:

The same as CTS
Note:
Fig.2-1Pin Assignment of Serial Interface
① “Source” denotes the source that signal comes from;
② Logical signal level is EIA .
The baud rate and data structure in serial interface mode are set to 9600bps,8 data
bits ,no parity bit and1or over1stopbit(s).
The serial interface of POS58
Ⅳ can be connected to standard RS-232C interface.
When connected to IBM PC or compatible machine, connection can according to
Fig2-5.
