3–10 Configuring the Printer
Pressing the up and down arrow keys simultaneously, or holding the SHIFT key
while pressing the ENTER key will toggle the enter lock function. If either of these
functions are performed while the ENTER key is locked, the message ENTER
SWITCH UNLOCKED will be displayed for one second, and the ENTER key will
be unlocked.
If either of these functions are performed while the ENTER key is unlocked, the
message ENTER SWITCH LOCKED will be displayed for one second, and the
ENTER key will be locked.
Whenever the ENTER key is pressed for a specific value (if the ENTER key is
unlocked), the value is entered and the configuration is changed immediately.
This change will take effect for all subsequent data and operations for the printer.
However, the configuration change is used only until the printer is turned off.
When the power is turned off, all configuration data is lost.
To save configuration information permanently and/or to select it as the power-up
default, see the “Saving Your New Configuration” section on page 3–11 for
details.
