- Greetings,
-
- I posted a question a while ago about using an HP DeskJet Plus with an
- Amiga 2000. I'm trying to get the dipswitch settings right, and I'm
- wondering if anyone can answer some weird questions:
-
- - For the RS-232-C handshaking, should I use DTR *and* Xon/Xoff (switch
- B8 = DOWN) or just DTR (switch B8 = UP)?
- - Is the parallel port baud rate 1200,2400,9600, or 19200 baud? (the factory
- setting is 9600: switch B4 and B5 are down).
- - Should I use 8 bits, no parity, like my serial port? The other options:
-
- Parity Word length Switch B6 Switch B7
- None 8 bits down down
- Odd 7 down up
- Even 7 up down
- None 8 up up
-
- If anyone can contribute any knowledge, please send e-mail. Thanks!
