Enable DEVICE mode (DIP switch #6 is OFF). Connect USB cable. Start PrintCapture. Open “Setup” | “Configuration…” dialog. Select “Serial Port” tab. Set values as follows: • Port: Select virtual COM port created by USB driver • Baud Rate: 115200 • Word Size: 8 • Parity: NONE • Stopbits: 1 • Handshake: RTS/CTS • Select “Automatic” Click OK. PrintCapture is now ready to receive data. Some instruments, like HP 8566B, require PrintCapture to respond to commands sent by the instrument. In such cases, enable output command processing in PrintCapture as follows: • Open “Setup” | “Configuration…” dialog. • Select “HPGL Processing” tab. • Check “Process Output Commands” in lower right corner. Click OK. Please see PrintCapture website for more details.
