report explain which keys to use to make adjustments to the settings.
Menu Mode
1 The SELECT key moves the print head from one item to the next. Press it a few times
and the print head will move along each time to the next option. Repeatedly pressing the
SELECT key moves the head to the next option, eventually returning to the first option.
2 The SAVE key selects the item currently pointed to by the print head. This then becomes
the standard or default setting.
3 The MENU key moves on to the next menu item without saving the new value. If you do
not want to make any changes to the current menu item setting, press the MENU key.
4 Moving the SW1 switch exits from the SETUP position exits menu mode. The new
settings are NOT activated until the printer is switched off or the MENU key is held down
for 3 seconds.
Menu Functions
LANGUAGE The language used for the menu print out. Standard options include: English,
French, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch.
RIBBON This option is used to specify the type of ribbon installed. The options are NORMAL,
or COLOUR. In some versions of printer, you can also select a BLACK FILM ribbon.
ASF Automatic Sheet Feeder. This is used to specify whether an automatic sheet feeder is
installed. The options are OFF, ASF for a paper feeder, or ASF + ENVELOPE for the ASF with
the envelope feeding facility.
EMULATION is used to set which emulation to use. The AUTO option will automatically try to
determine the correct emulation. However, in certain circumstances, you may need to be more
specific and choose from EPSON or IBM and, in some case, NEC.
FONT gives a choice of six letter-quality fonts, a DRAFT font for quick printing, and a high-speed
or HS-DRAFT font for even quicker printing. The exact letter quality font styles may vary for
specialist versions of this printer, but generally, they are as follows:
Font 1 CTZ Courier Font 4 CTZ Prestige Elite
Font 2 CTZ Roman Font 5 CTZ Script
Font 3 CTZ Sanserif Font 6 CTZ Orator
PITCH sets the number of characters per inch (cpi). The options are 10 cpi (Pica, the default),
12 cpi (Elite), 15 cpi and proportional. If you choose proportional, the spacing between charac-
ters is adjusted according to their width, giving a pleasing ‘typeset’ appearance to the text.
FONT LOCK is used to make the printer ignore any font selection commands sent from the
computer. When FONT LOCK is set ON, all text will be printed using the font set on the printer.
If you want to use the facilities in a commercial software package, such as a wordprocessor, to
control the appearance of your text, you should leave FONT LOCK set OFF.
QUARTER PRINT sets the printer to print 4 small pages on a sheet. This function will not
appear on all version of the printer.
LINE SPACING is used to set the number of lines per inch to 6 (the default) or 8.
