Writing Data
When writing to a hard disk, a name is assigned to the file auto-
matically. You can use the procedure explained later in this sec-
tion to print a list of data names for confirmation. To write data
onto a hard disk, proceed as follows.
First check that the hard disk is properly formatted. Otherwise,
the >Write Data message to be explained below will not be
shown on the message display.
Press the MENU key.
Press the 3 or 4 key repeatedly until Hard Disk >
appears.
Press the 2 key.
Press the 3 or 4 key repeatedly until >Write Data
appears.
Press the
ENTER
key. A question mark (?) appears.
Press the ENTER key. Processing appears, then
Waiting.
In this state, send the file from the computer to the
printer.
The file is written onto the hard disk and given a
destination name (also referred to as a partition name)
which the printer automatically assigns one after
another as follows:
DataH001 (first data),
DataH002 (second data),
DataH003 (third data)...
In the example above, if the file TEST.TXT is the first
data to be written onto the hard disk, the destination
name will be DataH001.
As the printer receives data, the message display
changes to Processing, then when the end of the
data is received, the message display changes to
Waiting.
Check that the message display has changed to
Waiting, then press the GO key. This writes file to the
hard disk and instructs the printer to automatically print
out a hard disk write information page as shown below.
Partition Type: Type of data written (currently
only type 2 is supported).
Partition Name: The destination name of data
written to the hard disk.
Write Partition Length: The size of the written data on
the memory hard disk.
Others: Error information.
When the hard disk write information page is printed,
the message display returns to Ready.
If the writing was not completed successfully, an error
code appears on the message display. For details, see
Error Messages on page 4-6. If this happens, press the
GO key. The message display returns to Ready.
