NOTES: 1. Change the DIP switch when the printer power is turned off.
2. Changes in DIP switch settings are recognized only when the printer power is turned on
or when the printer is reset by using the interface. If the DIP switch setting is changed
after the printer power is turned on, the change does not take effect until the printer is
turned on again or is reset.
3. If the print density is set to “medium”/”dark” level, printing speed is inclined to be low
speed.
