Epson LQ-800 Printer User Manual


 
ON LINE-The green ON LINE light indicates that the printer is on
line
and ready to receive data. When the LQ is on line, you can select
either the Letter Quality or draft mode.
FORM FEED/LETTER QUALITY
FORM
FEED-Pressing this button advances the paper to the top of
the next page if you’re using continuous-feed paper (see Chapter 3,
“Installing the Tractor Unit”). If you’re using single-sheet paper, it fully
ejects one sheet. The form feed function works only when the printer
is off line.
LETTER QUALITY-Pressing this button selects the Letter Quality
typestyle (for more information on Letter Quality, see Step 7). The
printer beeps twice to acknowledge the Letter Quality selection. You
can select the Letter Quality typestyle with this button only when the
printer is on line.
LINE FEED/DRAFT
LINE FEED-Pressing this button advances the paper one line at a
time, either while you’re loading paper, or when you’re adjusting
where you want printing to begin. If you hold this button down, the
paper advances continuously. The line feed function works only when
the printer is off line.
DRAFT-Pressing this button selects the draft typestyle. The printer
beeps once to acknowledge the draft selection. The draft function
works only when the printer is on line.
Note
Use the LETTER QUALITY or DRAFT buttons before you
tell the computer to print. Do not use them while the LQ is
printing.
