Reference manual The control panel

The control panel

The control panel with its keys is used for controlling your work with the printer. The control panel is located on the front left side of your printer and consists of a two-line LC display and six keys.

The functions of the keys depend on the printer’s current mode (status).

There are four basic modes.

The Online mode is the printer’s normal operating status. Data from your computer can be received and printed.

In the Offline mode the link between printer and computer is interrupted, i.e. no data can be received and printed.

In the Setup mode you can either select the printer menu or carry out the so-called quick-switch function. The quick-switch option was included so that you can change the most important parameters (adjustments, character density, font, paper path, adjustments i.e. head gap) directly without having to enter them via the menu. The character density and font parameters can also be set permanently in the printer menu mode.

In the Menu mode further printer settings (line spacing, size of the inter- face buffer etc.) can be altered and saved permanently.
