The two indicator lights illuminate or blink ac- cording to the settings of the printer

Each time the PITCH button is pressed, the printer will select the next available font size from the list.

The combination of PITCH indicators lights shows the current character size selected, as shown on the Control Panel.

When the HIGH SPEED DRAFT function is enabled (using the button to the left of the control panel), only Program, 10 cpi and 12 cpi fonts can be selected.

You must be in PROGRAM (both PITCH indicators are off) to allow your software to control your font size. If any one of the pitch lights are lit, then the printer will remain locked in this size of character printing.
