LOAD/EJECT

Press this button to load paper. However, the printer normally loads paper automatically. When single-sheet paper is in the loading position, the printer ejects the sheet when you press this button. When continuous paper is in the loading position or tear-off position, the printer feeds the paper backward to the paper-park position.

If you have been printing from the manual feed slot, pressing this button switches paper loading back to the paper feeder.

FONT

Press this button to cycle through the font choices on the font menu. The FONT lights indicate the current selection.

ECONOMY/CONDENSED

Press this button to select economy or condensed printing. The indicator lights indicate which mode is on.

ALT

The ALT button also alters the functions of the other buttons. Hold down the ALT button and press another button to perform the following functions:
