Curt,

Do a self-test and the printout will show you what the config is. Go
offline, hold TEST until 4. shows up on the panel, release then hit
enter. After 30 seconds you'll get a printout. The info you want is at
the top, so you can hit online to terminate test early. If the parms are
not what you want you'll have to change items 20 and 22 to get it right.
Also you can use printer type 22 which has the status checking. And, yes
the 2-3-7 works!

Subject: [HP3000-L] HP2562c serial interface configuration


Hello,

I have just replaced a hp-ib card with a serial card on this printer.  I
configured a ldev on a DTC with term type 18, speed 9600, parity none.
Redownloaded the DTC config.  Tried to print and all I get is one line
of
garbage.

Can someone tell me if I need to change the printer config thru the
panel on
the printer?  Do I have the ldev config right?  Do I need a special
printer
cable or will a 2-3-7 pin cable work?

TIA
