Function Keys

ONLINE

ONLINE is lit continuously when the printer is online (when the printer is ready to print and accept data from the host). It flashes when the printer is offline or when the printer stops because of an error.

FAULT

FAULT flashes when the printer is unavailable for printing because of an internal error.

Function Keys

The pressure-sensitive function keys are located directly below the status indicators. When pressing the keys, a “beep” verifies contact.

The function keys permit you to configure the options of the printer. You can access these options via a structured menu which is displayed on the LCD. To navigate through the options, use the UP, DOWN, NEXT, and PREV keys. Press ENTER to select an option that appears on the LCD.

The purpose of each function key (under normal printing mode) is defined below.

For specific procedures and information regarding the configuration menu, see Chapter 3 in the User’s Manual.

NOTE: You can enable or disable the panel key sound via the configuration menu.

ONLINE Key

The ONLINE key toggles the printer online and offline.

To place the printer online, press ONLINE until the ONLINE status indicator remains continuously lit. The LCD displays “ONLINE,” along with the name of the current emulation. The printer can now receive and process data and print.
