Operating the Control Panel
Other control panel features
The control panel of the LQ also gives you access to several
special functions.
Self test
By holding down the
FORM FEED
or
LINE FEED
button while you
turn on the printer, you can start the LQ’s self test. This prints out
the DIP switch settings and the characters in the printer’s ROM
(Read Only Memory). See the section on the self test in Chapter 1
for further information.
Micro adjustment
By pressing the
FORM FEED
and LINE FEED buttons immediately after
loading paper and when the printer is on line and the orange indicator
light is flashing, you can move the paper 1/180th of an inch at a time
for fine adjustments to the loading and short tear-off positions. See the
section on micro adjustment in this chapter for further information.
Data dump
By holding down both the
LINE FEED
and
FORM FEED
buttons
while you turn on the printer, you turn on the data dump mode.
This feature allows advanced users to diagnose many problems. See
the section on the data dump mode in Chapter 6 for further
information.
