The connection from the printer to the HC5500 is done through COM 1 or COM 2. The
printer is powered through the COM port so there is only one plug for the connection.
The configuration of the com port is done in Extended Menu 4.
In menu E4.1.1 Equipment type, Printer must be chosen and in menu E4.1.2 the baud rate
must be set to 9600.
In the section "Configuration of HC5500 to dump data” is a detailed description of the setup.
If the printer does not work, then check the connection to the COM port and see if it is
correct.
If it does not print, check the paper is threaded correctly (not reverse side).

toggle type.
