INTRODUCTION

This printer has a full complement of features, making it an excellent partner for a personal computer. It supports the Epson/IBM printer commands and character sets, enabling it to print just about anything your computer can generate, both text and graphics.

The selection of paper you can use is as varied as the types of document you can produce. This printer accepts any of the following kinds of paper:

●Single sheets (cut forms) and stationery

●Fanfold forms (continuous forms)

●Multi-part forms (up to 3-ply)

●Preprinted forms

This Multi-font printer has the following resident (internal) fonts:

●Draft

●Roman

●Sanserif

●Courier

●Prestige

●Script

The control panel has five but[ons and eleven indicators. The indicator display and beep tones provide immediate, easy-to-understand feedback when you press the buttons on the control panel.

The five buttons can operate in combinations to perform a surprising variety of functions, including saving a micro.

An additional useful feature is the ability to switch easily between printing on fanfold paper and printing on single sheets. A simple control panel operation lets you “park” the fanfold paper, so that you do not have to remove the fanfold paper from the printer. When you want to resume printing on the fanfold paper, you can simply “unpark” it.
