Chapter 2: Control Panel Operations
The control panel gives you push-button control over the printer’s power and
paper feed operations. It also includes indicator lights that tell you the current
status of the printer at a glance.
This chapter describes general functions that can be performed using the control
panel buttons while the printer is turned on and either on-line or off-line. The
buttons perform different functions in the EDS and Dot Adjustment Modes.
Functions of control panel buttons in these modes are described in the sections
covering them.
Important!
The procedures described in this chapter will not work if paper is not loaded
into the printer. Be sure to use the procedures on page 8 of this manual to load
paper before trying any of the following operations.
Switching between on-line and off-line
❏
Press ON LINE to switch the printer between being on-line and off-line.
❏ When the printer is in on-line, the ON LINE indicator is lit and the printer
can receive data from the computer. This means that you should make sure
that the printer is on-line whenever you are trying to print.
❏ When the printer is in off-line, the ON LINE indicator goes out, which
means that the printer cannot receive any data.
Important!
Make sure that the on-line/off-line setting of the printer is correct before
performing any other control panel operations.
