Use a paper clip or other pointed object to set the switches.

1.Open the front cover.

2.Set the switches to the desired settings shown in the table.

Switch 1 must be set to Off for the on-line mode. Setting switch 1 to On puts the printer in level 1 diagnostics (setup mode). Changing the other switches in level 1 diagnostics can change settings that have been pre-set at the factory. See the “Diagnostics” chapter in the Owner's Guide for more information.
