The other two buttons, FF and LF, work only when the printer is off line (when the ON LINE light is off). If the ON LINE light is on, press the ON LINE button before you use these.

FF (Form Feed)-advances continuous paper to the top of the next page or ejects a single sheet of paper.

LF (Line Feed)-advances the paper one line at a time.

The control panel can also be used to turn on several printing functions using SelecType, a feature which is described in the next chapter.

Using Your Printer

If you have a word processing or other commercial software pro- gram, just load the program into your computer, follow the printing instructions, and watch your LX-90 print.

If your software program requires you to specify which printer you are using, see Appendix E for instructions.

If you plan to use your LX-90 for printing program listings, load a program and use the appropriate listing command for the programming language you are using.

You can now begin using the LX-90 with your software, or you can find out about the special features of the printer in the next chapters. You may be especially interested in SelecType, the feature described in Chapter 2, which you can use with nearly all software.
