Ready mode
The printer is in Ready mode after power is switched on and the self-test is performed.
The LCD (Display) shows “READY” and the READY LED is lit. In this state, you can
perform the paper feed, printing stop/restart etc using the keys on the control panel. (See
P12 − 14)
The display shows the name of the receiving interface when data is received from the host
computer. In this state, the printer receives and processes the information accordingly.
If no data is received for 5 seconds, the printer returns to Ready mode with no interface
selected and continues to scan all installed interfaces for incoming data.

The printer enters the Menu mode when the key is pressed. In this state, you
can access the menu system and set the printer configuration and print attributes using the
keys on the control panel. Pressing

5.4 Navigating the Menu System
The printer uses the same operating procedure to set various print attributes and configuration settings.
This section describes the relationship between the different menu levels as well as the functions of the

keys on the control panel.
The Group Menu is the highest level of the menu tree and consists of six options as shown in the
