FRONT PANEL CONTROLS

The following section describes the front panel controls and indicators on your printer, together with a description of the functions performed by them.

CONTROLS AND INDICATORS

The following is a brief guide to the controls and indicators on the front panel.

Controls

The printer is equipped with five buttons: from left to right they are, \ FONT and 1EH (smaller buttons), and FJECV , LPCED and ~ON~~F(larger buttons).

Indicators

The first two buttons have a series of indicators next to them which show which option has been currently selected using them (font or pitch). Some of these indicators can be either orange or green, depending upon the options currently selected.

There is no indicator associated with the ITEE+ button (as its operation is obvious when paper has been inserted), but the PAPERFEED’andONLINE buttons both have indicators embedded in the buttons themselves. The indicator embedded in the PAPERFEED’button, however does not indicate paper feed directly, but indicates (when illuminated) whether Quiet mode has been selected (see below). The ONMEbutton also has an embedded indicator. Pushing the 0~ME button will alternately set the printer on- and off-line and illuminate or extinguish the indicator.
