The Starting Line
Where is all the motor noise? How about some big levers, lights, and alarms?
Looks like dynamite in a small silent package!
The POWER light should be lit. Press the FEED button several times and
watch it advance the paper. This doesn’t look at all complicated.
The Final Checkout
The final part of this checkout takes about 3½ minutes. It’s important that we
do it; plus it shows us what print characters are available.
Load the printer with plenty of paper. Turn the printer OFF. Hold the FEED
button down and turn the printer back ON - at the same time.
GO!
WOW! Look at that son-of-a-gun go. Watch the head printing. Move the paper
bail out of the way to see it better, but keep your fingers (and hair) out of the
hardware.
When the printer stops, advance the paper forward with the FEED button, and
tear off the self-test run. Hang it up on the wall as a souvenir.
Whew!
That’s enough for this chapter. Take a short walk to vent the exhilaration. All’s
well and we’re on the right track. In the next chapter we’ll hook it to the
computer, turn it on, and see what happens.
GO !
