Saving a Configuration

You can save up to eight different configurations to meet unique print job

requirements.

For example:

Config. 0:

Factory Default (This cannot be altered. See page 3–14.)

Config. 1:

Selects RS–232 Serial Interface

Selects Image Width of 4 inches

Selects Paper Length of 24 inches

Selects Image Shift of 1 inch, etc.

Config. 2:

Selects Dataproducts Parallel Interface

Selects Image Width of 8 inches

Selects Paper Length of 11 inches

Selects Image Shift of 3/20 inch, etc.

The configurations are saved and stored on diskette for later use. These

configurations, including the factory default, will not be affected when the printer

power is turned off. If you do not save your configuration before you turn off the

printer, the current configuration will be lost.

NOTE: If the “Protect Configs.” option is enabled, the new configuration

will not be saved unless the existing configuration has been deleted.
