i'm looking for information about the dip switch settings for a SERIAL HP2225D thinkjet printer. i have a manual for the parallel version, but it only has settings for the character set selection. i need to find settings for the dip switch that controls the serial port parameters, as well as serial cable pinouts. if you have this info and can condense it into an e-mail message, please mail to me direct, since i rarely check this newsgroup. thanks. ================================================================================ dennis p. harris bitnet: jsdph@alaska.edu "The nation that controls magnetism controls the Universe." --- Diet Smith ================================================================================

For the 5 DIP switches labelled "RS-232C" (leftmost=1, rightmost=5,
U=up, D=down):
Switch Setting Purpose
------ ------- -------
1 U DTR (Printer Busy)
D XON/XOFF
2 & 3 D D No parity, 8 bits (or zero & 7)
D U Odd parity, 7 bits
U D Even parity, 7 bits
U U Ones parity, 7 bits
4 & 5 D D 9600 baud
D U 19200
U D 2400
U U 1200
For the serial interface, (input=received by printer, output=
