be used, the P-touch can be left at its default
baud rate setting. If the baud rate of the P-
touch must be changed, refer to To change the
settings for the standard serial (RS-232C) inter-
face parameters: on page 63, and then change
the baud rate setting of the P-touch.

Standard Interface mode (Mode that
enables printing from P-touch Editor
using an original P-touch driver)
With the standard Interface mode, the PT-9600
starts printing automatically when it receives a
print command from the computer. If no data is
received for 5 seconds, the PT-9600 automati-
cally exits Interface mode.
In the standard Interface mode, various interface
parameters can be selected to specify how the
data is sent from the computer.
