Apart fro m being able to cont ro l yo ur pr inter via the applicatio ns so ft ware you use, you can
also program the printer directly . The r e a re two programming options you can us e:
Programming via t he control panel.
Program m ing v ia the interface using Escape se quences or control codes.
Settings made by escape sequences have priority over settings made i n menu
mode; therefore they will override th ese.
Pro gr amming via the interface gives you far greater free dom for designing your printed pages,
however, it is also a more sophisticated method and r equires some ex perience with
progr amming langua ges and printer control syste m s .
All pr ogramming via the interface is lost a fter you turn of f t he pr inter, whe reas t he

5.1.2 Menu configurations
Eve r y pr inter is shipped with factory def ault settings. B asic settings s uc h as emulation,
char acter size, form length etc., which many applica tions make use of , are se t. A t the end of
this chapter you will f ind a menu printout which shows yo u the printer’s default settings.
Your pr inter allows you to set a nd us e fiv e independent menu configurations. If one of your
applications, for example, requir es an IBM printe r while anothe r program works be tter w ith a n
EPSON pr inter, you can set an IBM emulation c onfigurat ion with the desired settings, and set
the se c ond configuration as an EPSO N em ulation.
The a c tive menu is alwa y s the one y ou used last. When you switch on t he pr inter for the very
first time, menu no. 1 is loaded. Menu no.1 only r emains active until you load a nother menu.
The la s t ac tive menu is sto re d ev en aft er the printer is sw itched off and is re loaded
aut omatically when the printer is switc hed o n again.
For example, to change from menu no. 1 to menu no. 3:
Press Setup key.
Press Menu (1) key.
Press Menu (3) key.
Now t he following me s sa ge appears in the LC display:
Now pre s s the < ( 2) or > (3) k ey repeatedly unt il Load Menu=3
appears.
Then select menu no. 3 a s the c ur r ent setting using the Set key
(1). The currently active setting is ma rked with an asterisk (*).
If changing menus it is possible that t he pr in t e r initializes due to different
emulation settings.

5.1.3 Menu handling
You c an na v igate in the current menu using the four function a nd se lection keys arr anged
below the LC display field. Each function and parameter displayed in the LCD is exe c uted or
selected by the cor r esponding key below, respectively. Usually two parameter gr oups are
com bined at o ne leve l. In the fo llowing ex am ple, the se are the LPI a nd Skip par ame ter gro ups.
If yo u do no t wis h to change one of the tw o parameters you can either press the Next key (to
acc ess the two follo wing parameter gr oups in the menu) , o r yo u ca n pr ess the Back key (to
acc ess the two previous paramete r groups in the menu).
If yo u want to change a setting, (e.g. t he line density) , t hen press the LPI ke y (LPI = lines per
inch) to access the actual parameter level.
The currently valid setti ng is m ar k ed by an as t er i s k (in t h e exam p le bel ow the cur r en t

Tally Dascom 2600+/2610+
6.1.6 IPv6 Functionality
The print er is now supporting IPv6 as a supplement for the still existing IPv4 funct ionality. The
IPv6 address settings are execute d fully automatic. There is no need and no option for
configuring the se ttings. The IPv6 addresses will be shown on t he s tatus page a nd print server
status frame.
6.2 IP Configuration
6.2.1 Net work IP Configuration
The ne twork interface of the printer requires an IP a ddr ess.
There are several ways to assign an IP address to the printer:
DHCP (A Dyna m ic Host Configuration Proto co l se r v er assigned I P address.)
Static (An IP addr ess obtained fro m yo ur network administ r ator added to t he printer
manually.)
BOOTP (Boo t st rap Protocol server assigned IP address. )
6.2.2 Assigning the IP Address
If t he pr inter menu is loc ked, please see t he4.2.5.
1. Automatic DHCP IP address assignment:
Press <Set up>, then <Menu>.
Press <Next> until the I/ O selection appears. Select <I/ O>.
Press <Next> until the E TH-INT selection appears. Select <ETH-INT>.
Press <Next> until the IP Get M se lection appears. Select <IP Get M> Select <DHCP>.
Verify tha t your printer was assigned an IP address by printing the “Current Settings ”
configuration page or in the operator panel menu.
1) At power-up, the printer networ k interface broa dc asts a DHCP request for an IP address.
If a DHCP server is prese nt, the request will be pro ce s se d, and a n IP address will be
returne d to t he pr inter networ k interf ac e. Upon re ce ipt of the I P address, the pr inter
accepts and uses this new IP address (and subnet ma s k, and default gateway, if any).
2) Once a n IP addre s s has been assigned, the printer network inte rface will no lo nger
broadcast DHCP re que s ts. The printer w ill bro adcast a DHCP request each time you t ur n
on the print er .
3) The DHC P se r v e r may gr ant a t em porar y IP address, cal led a temporary lease or
temporary reserv ation, which expires l ater, or may grant a permanent or unlimited time
lease or re se r vation, whic h does not expire.
4) Devices s uc h as the pr inter tha t are gra nted a temporary lease will be notified be fore the
lease expires and as ke d if t hey would lik e to extend the lease . The pr inter ne twork
inte r face w ill co ntinue extending its lease indefinitely (unless prohibited by your DHCP
ser ve r configuration), and thus mainta in a consistent IP address.
39
Tally Dascom 2600+/2610+
5)
If the printer is not turned o n or is not connecte d to t he network when the DHCP server is
sending r eque s ts to extend the lea se , t he lease will not be exte nded. The DHCP server
will canc el the leas e and ma y as s ign the I P address to another de v ice. Therefore, it is
highly re c om m ende d to explic itly specify the printer lea se as permanent or unlimited in
your DHCP se r ve r conf igur ation.
2. Static assignment using the oper ator panel:
Press < Setup >, then < Menu >.
Press < Next > until the I /O selectio n appears. Sele ct < I/O >.
Press < Next > until the ETH-INT selection appears. Select < ETH-INT >, then< IP Addr >
Enter the v alue for Octe t 1by pr essing < OCTET 1 >. Use the for ward and backward arrows
to inc r ement/decre me nt the number. When finishe d with ea c h entry press< Set > w hic h will
set t he currently displayed value . To exit out wit hout changing the va lue press < Exit >.
Enter the Octet 2 value in the same way , pressing < OCTET 2 >. To get to Octet 3 and
Octet 4, select < Next > and then sele c t <O CTET 3> and < OCTE T 4 >.
Enter the default Gateway and Subnet mask in the same way. < Gateway > is availa ble
from the screen you are returned to. Press < Next > to select < Subnet >.
Enter the IP address get method under the selection <IP Get M>. Se lect <Static>.
3. BOOTP IP address assignment:
Press <Setup>, then <Menu>.
Press <Next> until the I/ O selection appears. Select <I/ O>.
Press <Next> until the E TH-INT selection appears. Select <ETH-INT>.
Press <Next> until the IP Get M se lection appears. Select <IP Get M> Select <BOOTP>
Obtain the E thernet MAC a ddr ess by printing the “ Cur r ent Settings ” c onfigurat ion page,
Turn of f printer.
Configure y our BOOTP ser ve r with desired IP addr ess and MAC addr ess.
Turn on printer.
Verify t hat the printer network interface received an I P a ddr ess by printing the “ Current
Settings” conf igur ation page or in t he operator panel me nu.

7.2.8 LC printi ng
Certain professional applications may require unusually Large character sizes. Therefore your
printer has the possibility of scaling standard size characters up to factor 99 by means of
control sequenc es (LCP *) .
The He ader seque nce defines the parameters (e.g. height ) once. This definition rema ins until
the pr inter is switched off. The printa ble LCP* inform ation is transm itted in an LCP “bracket”
(SI).
The following character sets (with national characters) are available
.
US ASCII 01
GERMAN 02
The characte r sets are sele cte d via the follo w ing LCP se que nce ESC ”P“ ”L“ ”S“ n ESC ”\“. The
value o f n ma y ra nge between 01 and 02 ( as ASCII characters) – see ID column in the above
table.
To select e.g. the German character set, you must use the following data set:
HEX
DEC
1B
27
50 4C
80
49* 27 92
The p rintout of LCP characters can be selected in all of the emulations.
Prerequisite: Prin t er must be in Barco de mode.
Note that this printer also sup po rt s some scalabl e f onts in the LQ-2170
emulation if a compatible driver is used.

7.3 Interfaces Specifications
Your m atrix printer offers connectiv ity via a parallel interfac e, USB and Ethernet interface.
Serial I/O RS 232C interface is an o ption. This appe ndix inform s yo u about the paralle l
Interface, USB, Ethernet interface and optional serial interface RS232C, and describes the
com m unic ation between your computer and the printe r.
These interfac es are link ed to for m a c alled share d interface. Your printer can be configured to
use only one interface or three alternately . When o nly one inte rfac e is us ed, it is monito r ed by
the pr inter. If the printer is configured to use three interfaces simultaneously it monitors all
inte r faces for inco m ing data. As soon as the pr inter recognizes a signal, it switc hes to the
res pective interface and sends the B USY signal to the othe r interface. After f inishi ng the data
transmission, the pr inter remains switched to the interface fo r a certain period of time (30
sec onds). When this tim e has e lapsed, the controller again enables all int erfaces and the
sequence described restarts. If incoming data is on the other interface and t he c ur r ent print
position is not “To p of Form”, a form feed is ca r r ied o ut.

7.3.1 Parallel I/O IEEE 1284
The bidirectiona l parallel inter face offers the “nibble” mode of IEEE 1284 interfa ce. This
enables installation in accordance with Windows “ P lug & P lay”.
The st andard para llel interface is able to transfe r data at a speed of max. 30, 000 bytes per
sec ond. When the receiving buffer is f ull, the data input is blocked until the data buffer is
empty.
