Communications Code

The Zebra S-Series Printer sends and receives American Standard Code

for Information Interchange (ASCII). This code consists of 128 charac-

ters (256 for Code Page 850) including upper and lower case letters,

punctuation marks, and various control codes.

Interfaces

The method of interfacing the Zebra S-Series Printer to a data source

depends on the communication options installed in the printer. Depend-

ing on how the printer was ordered, the interface is either an RS-232 se-

rial data port or a parallel port.
