installed. The printer will not work if the color ink
cartridge is not installed.
If color ink runs out while you’re printing, the
printer stops. You can continue to print with the
black ink cartridge by switching to monochrome
printing. To do this, turn off the printer, turn it on
again, and resend your print job.
Paper Out
On when the printer runs out of paper. Flashes
rapidly if there is a paper jam.
Economy
On when economy printing mode is selected. In
economy mode the printer uses less ink by printing
fewer dots per character. It also makes black printing
appear gray. Use this mode for rough drafts of text
only that are printed from DOS applications.
Condensed
On when condensed mode is selected. The printer
prints selected fonts at 60% of their width so more
characters fit on a page. (Software can override this
setting.)
