USING SETUP MODE

DECIDING WHICH OPTIONS

The previous page shows a printout of the printer’s factory default

TO CHANGE

settings. In this printout, options are listed by functional group:

 

 

• Menu 1 settings (MENU1 function)

 

 

• Menu 2 settings (MENU2 function)

 

 

• Hardware settings (HARDWRE function)

 

 

• Print position adjustment settings (ADJUST function)

 

 

• Configuration settings (CONFIG function)

 

 

• Print head gap adjustment settings (GAP-ADJ function)

 

Most selectable options only alter print features, such as the typestyle,

 

and page format. However, some options must be selected correctly

 

for the printer to work properly with your hardware and software.

 

For each function, Table 5.2 lists items whose options must be selected

 

correctly for system and printer accessory compatibility.

MENU1

EMULATE

The emulation selected on the printer

 

 

 

 

must be the same as the emulation

 

 

 

 

selected in your software. If you selected

 

 

 

 

an emulation when you set up the

 

 

 

 

printer (Chapter 2), you do not need to

 

 

 

 

change the EMULATE option unless you

 

 

 

 

want to change to a different emulation.

 

 

 

 

The emulation assigned to MENU1 is the

 

 

 

 

default when you turn the printer on.

MENU2

None

If you use MENU2, the emulation

 

 

 

 

selected for MENU 2 must be the same as

 

 

 

 

the emulation selected in your software.
