I have recently obtained an imagewriter (probably the first one made) and the
dip switchs are not set correctly for my SE (Yes I have the correct cable) does
anyone have a manual that would describe how to set the dip switches for this
beast? Would greatly appreciate any input to get this thing going!--

I also have one of the ImageWriter Classics, but connected to a Mac II. I'd imagine it's the same for other Macs... This is how I have the DIP switched set on it. (SW1 is the big one) SW1 : 1-5, 7,8 open & 6 closed SW2 : 3,4 open & 1,2 closed Here is what the switches do: SW1 : 1,2,3 : for foreign character sets Language 1 2 3 ------------------------------------------- American open open open British closed closed open German open open closed French open closed closed Swedish closed open closed Italian closed open open Spanish closed closed closed American open closed open There are indeed two Americans, I believe they are the same. For the most part, the Mac uses the graphics mode, and what text is set for is pretty much useless. SW1 : 4 closed = 72 lines/page, open = 66 lines/page SW1 : 5 closed = ignore 8th bit, open = don't SW1 : 6,7 character pitch 6 7 ------------------------------------------- open open pica closed open elite open closed ultracondensed closed closed elite proportional (Also pretty much useless for the Mac.) SW1 : 8 closed add LF after CR, open = no LF after CR SW2 : 1,2 baud. The Mac likes 9600 1 2 ------------------------------------------- open open 300 closed open 1200 open closed 2400 closed closed 9600 SW2 : 3 closed = XON/XOFF, open = DTR protocol -Norman Franke nf0i+@andrew.cmu.edu
