Using the Multi-Wavelength Meter
Printing Measurement Results
Printing Measurement Results
Measurement results can be sent directly to a printer. Simply connect a com-
patible printer to the rear-panel
PARALLEL PRINTER PORT
connector. The output
is ASCII text. An example of a compatible printer is Hewlett-Packard
®
’s Laser-
Jet
1
series printer. Be sure to use a parallel printer cable to connect the
printer.
The printer output is not a copy of the display. Rather, it is a listing of all sig-
nals present at the input (up to 100). The measurement values printed
depend on the settings of the instrument when the
Print
key is pressed.
The following is an example of a typical printout:
