Chapter 2 Using The Control Panel

PAGE EJECT Key

The PAGE EJECT key has the following functions when the printer is online:

When the JOB IN PROCESS status indicator lights steadily, pressing PAGE EJECT causes the printer to print all data in the printer. If continuous form paper is used, the page then will be cut at the perforation (unless the Burst On Eject option is disabled).

When the JOB IN PROCESS status indicator flashes, pressing PAGE EJECT causes the printer to attempt to print any data in the buffer. The paper motion caused by the page eject operation may interrupt the printing of data that is not currently in the buffer. Once the paper motion has occurred, the data that was not yet in the buffer should print. If continuous form paper is used, the page then will be cut at the perforation (unless the Burst On Eject option is disabled).

To start downloading files to the printer, press the PAGE EJECT + ONLINE key. See Chapter 3 for more information.

IMPORTANT Do not press PAGE EJECT while JOB IN PROCESS is flashing,

or your print job might become misaligned.

When the JOB IN PROCESS status indicator is not lit or flashing, PAGE EJECT has no effect.

Pressing the SHIFT + PAGE EJECT keys together at the same time moves the paper one page length without printing or cutting the paper. This function is intended to be used with fanfold paper only. It can be used to feed the paper into (customer-supplied) postprocessing equipment.

ENTER Key

When you are entering parameters in the configuration menu, press ENTER to select the value shown in the LCD. The printer will confirm your selection by placing an asterisk (*) next to the value in the display. However, if the ENTER key is locked, “ENTER KEY LOCKED” appears and the value is not accepted.
