Paper Motion

The Paper Motion Test (06.1) completes a top–of–form operation, slews

paper, and prints one line of characters a total of six times.

Mode Changing Examples

M = mode

1 = WP, 10 cpi

2 = DPI, 10 cpi

3 = Compressed, 12.5 cpi

5 = Condensed, 16.7 cpi

Example 1

1. Power–up mode = M2 (Configuration 30.0)

M2 + ESC SO, SO = M6, one line only, then M2

M2 + ESC W1 = M6

M2 + ESC W1 + ESC SI, SI = M2

M2 + ESC SO, SO + ESC SI, SI = M2 one line, then M5

M2 + ESC WO = M2

M5 + DC2 = M2

M2 + ESC P = M1

Example 2

2. Power–up mode = M2 (Configuration 30.4)

M5 + ESC SO, SO = M2, one line, then M5

M5 + ESC W1 = M2

M5 + DC2 = M5 (Clears to M5)

Example 3

3. Power–up mode = M2 (Configuration 30.2)

M3 + ESC SO, SO = M3

M3 + ESC SI, SI = M5

M3 + ESC SI, SI = ESC SO, SO = M2
