that's the way to go. Years ago we used these books to set all our
scanners to 8n1 and then did the rest of the scanner configuration via
terminal software.

And yes, in our scanners the settings are permanent. We have Jarltech
2070 scanners but also different brands (meteologic?). The scanning
software imho doesn't know about different scanner types.


Cheers,
