Booting from a PC

To choose the boot options:

1 . Turn on the printer while pressing

until messages

appear. You must do this step. Otherwise, the date and time prompts (the default) wait for input without appearing on the screen.

2 . When “Starting ROM-DOS…” appears, the printer beeps. You have approximately two seconds to do one of the following:

♦	Press	then	to bypass both files. The boot
	process continues with default configurations. The
	printer also prompts you for the date and time.
♦	Press	then	to request a prompt at each line of
	both files. Enter Y to process the line or N to bypass it.

♦Do nothing and let the printer process every line of both files.

To boot the printer from the PC:

1 . Gather the following files on a floppy disk:

♦COMMAND.COM

♦AUTOEXEC.BAT (at a minimum, this file must contain one line containing LCD Y C, which enables the display).

2 . Enter REMSERV A: at the PC’s DOS prompt, where X is the drive where the boot files reside.

3 . Turn on the printer and from the Startup Menu, choose #3. The printer boots from the PC.
