Using Set-Up Mode
How Set-Up Works
The Set-Up mode consists of Set-Up functions which correspond to printer settings
described in the previous page. Each function generally has many options which
correspond to print features to be changed. Each option includes many parameters values
to be selected. All the Set-Up functions, options and values are printed in a logical
sequence on the paper when you enter the Set-Up mode, including the usage of buttons.
You can perform all Set-Up operations by using buttons on the control panel in the
following order:
Navigating through the option menu structure.
Selecting a new value for an option.
Saving your new printer configuration (permanently or temporarily).
For information on using the printing test and hex dump functions, see the section Using
the Diagnostic Functions later in this chapter.
Entering the Set-Up Mode
Before entering the Set-Up mode, set continuous forms paper on the tractors as described in
the section Using Continuous Forms in Chapter 2. Several sheets of paper may be
required to make all of your Set-Up mode selections. Of course, you can use single sheets.
Note: We recommend the use of the push-tractor mode in order to avoid any paper
jam.
To enter the Set-Up mode:
1. Make sure that continuous forms paper set on the tractors is loaded and that the paper
select lever is set backward.
