To take a cartridge out of the slot, do the following:
1. Make sure that the machine is in printer "Ready" mode and that it is off line (the
indicator must be off).
❐ The indicator must be off. If it is flashing, the printer is receiving data. If it is lit
but not flashing, press to print the data that is still in the buffer.
2. Grasp the cartridge at the edge and slowly pull it straight out of the slot.
Never remove a cartridge if the printer is on line, while making printer settings
(using Selectype mode), or while the printer is resetting. If you remove a cartridge
while the printer is in one of these states, a REINSERT CARD message will
appear on the display. An error will also occur if you remove a cartridge while the
indicator is on, even if the printer is off line. See the error message descriptions
(page 44) for more details.
CONNECTING THE PRINTER TO TWO COMPUTERS
Multi-user Modes
Your printer has two channels. One is serial (RS-232C) and the other is parallel (Cen -
tronics). You can hook up a separate computer to each channel.
If you connect two computers to your printer, you can set up the printer to monitor the
two channels in one of two different ways.
❐ Autosense Multi-user Mode: In this mode, the printer automatically detects which
channel is receiving data, and allocates all the available printer memory to that chan -
nel.
❐ Individual Multi-user Mode: The printer allocates a fixed proportion of available
printer memory to each channel.
To select one of these, use the CH feature (see page 38 for how to program this fea -
ture).
Configuring the Serial and Parallel Channels
Your printer will probably work straight away with the default settings. However, if your
computer is having problems communicating with the printer, you may have to adjust
the I/F CONFIG (Interface Configuration) settings (see page 35 and the pages follow -
ing that). The settings must match the settings for your computer.
