Self test
Hex dump
By holding down the
LF/FF
or
TEAR OFF
button while you turn on the printer, you
can start the printer’s self test. The self test
prints the characters in the printer’s ROM
(Read Only Memory). See the section on
running the self test in Chapter 1.
By holding down both the
LF/FF
and
TEAR
OFF
buttons while you turn on the printer,
you can turn on the hex dump mode. This
feature prints the codes that are sent to the
printer so that advanced users can find
the cause of communication problems
between the computer and printer. See the
section on the hex dump mode in
Chapter 5 for more information.
Print settings
By holding down the
PAUSE
button while
you turn on the printer, the printer prints
the current DIP-switch settings.
Using DIP Switches
This printer has three sets of DIP switches. DIP switches
control a variety of printer functions such as page length and
printing speed. DIP-switch settings are shown in the
DIP-switch tables starting on page 3-10. Descriptions of all the
DIP-switch functions are provided beginning on page 3-14.
Because the factory (default) settings are designed to
accommodate the needs of most users, you may never need to
change the DIP-switch settings.
