22 Control Panel Operations
❏ After you have the paper at the position you want, hold down ON LINE
and press PAPER FEED to make the current print head position the new
auto load position. The printer will beep twice to indicate that the new auto
load position is set.
❏ To clear the new auto load position and return to the one that you set
previously (using the above procedure), press ON LINE. To clear the
currently set auto load position and return to the position specified by the
EDS Mode (page 29), hold down ON LINE and press FONT.
Note:
The auto load position you set remains in effect until you turn the printer off. If
you want to save the auto load position in memory, press PITCH instead of
PAPER FEED while holding down ON LINE in the above step.
Saving a macro
Normally, any settings you make on the control panel are cleared when you turn
the printer off. Use the following procedure to save the current control panel
settings so that they are used whenever you turn the printer on.
❏ Make the control panel settings you want.
❏ Use ON LINE to put the printer off-line (ON LINE indicator is not lit).
❏ Hold down FONT and then PITCH. Keep both buttons held down until the
printer beeps twice.
The font setting indicator will change to the next font when you press
FONT, but this procedure saves the font setting that was shown by the
indicator before you pressed FONT.
This procedure saves the following settings.
• Current font and pitch settings
• Current print color
• Quiet mode status
These items can be set separately for the Standard mode and the IBM mode.
❏ To clear saved control panel settings repeat the above procedure, but keep
FONT and PITCH depressed after the printer beeps twice. Soon the printer
will beep again three times to indicate that the saved control panel settings
have been cleared.
