Press the button to toggle the printer online or offline. The indicator lights up to indicate that the printer is online. When the printer goes offline, it ceases printing and becomes unable to receive data from the host.

Each time the switch is pressed, paper is fed to the top of form position. This operation can be performed whether the printer is in the on line state or the off line state.
