Using the Select-Dial
You turn the Select-dial to move the paper up and down, move the car-
riage back and forth, and scroll through the Setup menu.
Moving the Paper Up and Down
To move the paper up and down, press the Ready button to disable print-
ing and then turn the Select-dial. To advance the paper, turn the dial
clockwise; to reverse-feed the paper, turn the dial counterclockwise.
After moving the paper, press the Ready button again to re-enable
printing. When you move the paper with the dial, printer logic does not
change the internal line count. This enables you to decide where the first
print line should be and where line counting begins.
Moving the Carriage Back and Forth
To move the carriage to the right, hold down the Alt button and turn the
dial clockwise. To move the carriage to the left, hold down the Alt
button and turn the dial counterclockwise. You may have to move the
carriage to install a ribbon cartridge or clear a paper jam. Moving the
carriage does not affect the print position. When printing begins, the
carriage moves back to its original position.
Scrolling Through the Setup Menu
Whenever the Setup menu is displayed, you use the Select-dial to scroll
through the menu and make selections. You'll learn how to make selec-
tions later in this section.
