Using Set-Up Mode

How Set-Up Works
The Set-Up mode consists of Set-Up functions which correspond to the printer set-
tings described in the previous page. Each function generally has many options
which correspond to the print features to be changed. Each option includes many pa-
rameters values to be selected. All the Set-Up functions, options, and values are
printed in a logical sequence on the paper when you enter the Set-Up mode, including
the usage of buttons. You can perform all the Set-Up operations by using buttons on
the control panel in the following order:
Navigating through the option menu structure.
Selecting a new value for an option.
Saving your new printer configuration (permanently or temporarily).
For information on using the printing test and hex dump functions, see the section
“Using the Diagnostic Functions” later in this chapter.
Entering the Set-Up Mode
Before entering the Set-Up mode, load continuous feed paper on the tractors as de-
scribed in the section, “Using Continuous Forms,” in Chapter 2. Several sheets of
paper may be required to make all of your Set-Up mode selections. Of course, you
can use single sheets.
NOTE:
We recommend the use of the push-tractor mode in order to avoid paper
jams.
To enter the Set-Up mode:
1.
Make sure that the tractors are loaded with continuous feedpaper and that the
paper select lever is set backward.
2.
Turn the printer off.
3.
Turn the printer back on while pressing the two Set-Up/Quit buttons until the
printer beeps.
4.
Open the front cover in order to see the printed text.
