Adjustments and Settings
The TM-H5000/H5000P is set up at the factory to be appropriate
for almost all users. It does, however, offer some settings for users
with special requirements.
It has DIP switches that allow you to change communication
settings, such as handshaking and parity check, as well as print
density and connection to a customer display.
The TM-H5000/H5000P also has a near-end sensor for the paper in
the receipt section. This can give you a warning when the paper is
almost out. If you find that there is not enough paper remaining on
the roll when the near-end sensor is triggered, you can change the
near-end sensor setting.
See Appendix A if you need to make any of these changes.
