Always turn the power OFF (with the switch on the right side of the printer) before you change the setting of any of these switches. Any changes made while the power is on will be ignored until you turn the printer off and back on. So set all switches with the power off.

In Table D-lwe show you the functions of all the switches. Then we explain each of them.
