3.1 Using the Keypad in Keypad Mode
Some keys on the keypad perform a dual function, depending on whether

perform the primary function labeled on the key, such as Test/Font or
Manual Feed.
NOTE: With the exception of

is off line. A ‘‘beep’’ sounds if any of these keys are pressed when the printer
is on line.
