BANK C
Switch 1: Print Mode
Selects Draft (ON) or NLQ (OFF) as the print mode. NLQ (OFF) provides near letter quality output, while Draft (ON) provides draft quality. Draft quality printing may be less attractive than near letter quality, but the printing operation is faster.
Switch 2: Printable Area
Selects Type-A (OFF) or Type-B (ON) as the printable area. Type-A (OFF) causes the print area to start 1/6-inch from the top of the paper and end 1/4-inch from the bottom of the paper. Type-B (ON) causes the print area to start one inch from the top of the paper and end 1/4-inch from the bottom of the paper.
Switches 3, 4, 5: Print Pitch
Turn these switches on or off to form the pattern that matches the print pitch setting you want to make.

Switch 6: Quiet
When the Quiet Mode is enabled (OFF), the printer prints with less noise than normal printing. Though the Quiet Mode prints more quietly, it also takes considerably longer than normal printing.
