PRINTING

Locking the selected resident font

Your software often overrides the printer settings. You can use the control panel to prevent the selected resident font from being changed by the software. To retain the selected resident font:

1.Make sure that the printer is offline.

2.Press the LOCK button to light the LOCKED indicator. This indicator shows that the printer ignores font commands from the computer.

3.Press the ONLINE button to return online for printing. You are now ready to print keeping the selected resident font fixed.

STARTING OR STOPPING PRINTING

Starting Printing

Before you start to print, make sure that paper is loaded. Also, verify that the paper thickness lever is set to the appropriate position (1 to D).

To start printing, press the ONLINE button to place the printer online. Then start your software.

Stopping Printing

To stop printing immediately, press the ONLINE button to place the printer offline. You can also use your software to stop printing, but there will be a slight delay before printing stops. Any data sent to the print buffer but not yet printed is stored until you resume printing. Data in the print buffer is lost if you turn the printer off.
