a. To store the position as the 1Chr. Set Pos setting,
press the SEL switch. The setting will be retained, even if
you turn the printer off, until you use this procedure to
change the setting. This also automatically sets the TOF
setting in the Manual Feed group to 1Chr. Set Pos.
Note If you reset the printer to the factory defaults, the 1Chr.
Set Pos you have established will be deleted.
b. To store the position in the printer’s memory only
until it is turned off or receives an I-Prime signal,
press the LOAD switch.
