Control panel
The control panel keys are used for controlling your work with the
printer. The control panel is located on the front right side of your
printer and consists of a two-line LC display with 2 x 16 digits, three
keys for controlling the printer functions and four LED indicators dis-
playing the status of the printer.
The functions of the keys depend on the printer’s current mode (sta-
tus). There are three basic modes.
` The Online mode is the printer’s normal operating mode. Data from
your computer can be received and printed.
` In the Offline (STOP) mode the link between printer and computer
is interrupted, i.e. no data can be received and printed.
` In the Menu mode printer settings (line spacing, size of the inter-
face buffer etc.) can be altered and saved permanently.
