The ON LINE button controls the printer’s on line status.
Press this button to put the printer on line or take it off
line. When the printer is on line, the
ON LINE light is on
and the printer can receive and print data from the
computer.
When you are in the top of form mode, you can press the
ON LINE button to exit the mode without setting a new
top of form position. You can also press the ON LINE
button to exit the tear-off mode. See Chapter 2 for more
information on adjusting the top of form position and
using automatic tear-off.
The
FORM FEED button lets you advance the paper to the
top of the next page. To use this feature, press the button
when the printer is off line. To adjust the position that
the paper is fed to, see the section on adjusting the top of
form position in Chapter 2.
This button can also be used to run the printer’s self test.
See the section on running the self test in Chapter 1.
