Entering the EDS Mode

❏Turn off the printer.

❏Make sure that paper is loaded in the printer.

❏While holding down the control panel’s SET/EJECT/PARK button, turn the printer back on.

This causes the following message to be printed.

The paper is not fed after the message is printed, so you will have to open up the printer’s front cover to read it.

❏Press SET/EJECT/PARK to answer “Yes” or LINE FEED to answer “No” for each option as it appears on the printout. Each time you reply, printer prints the next setting.

❏To jump to the next category at any time, press ON LINE.

❏After you are ﬁnished making the EDS settings you want, hold down ON LINE and press LINE FEED.
