➤Menu configurations

➤Status page

Every printer is shipped with factory default settings. Basic settings such as emulation, character size, form length etc., which many applications make use of, are set. At the end of this chapter you will find a menu printout which shows you the printer’s default settings.

The status page contains all selected menu settings and the installed con- trol software and the character generators.

Make sure that blank paper is inserted in the valid paper source (default is Tractor 1). Keep the key 4 depressed for approx. 5 seconds while turning on the printer. After completion of the initialization the printer pulls the pa- per in print position and begins with the printout.

Your printer allows you to set and use three independent menu configura- tions. If one of your applications for example requires an IBM printer while another program works better with an EPSON printer, you can set an IBM emulation configuration with the desired settings, and set the second con- figuration as an EPSON emulation.

The active menu is always the one you used last. When you switch on the printer for the very first time, menu no. 1 is loaded. Menu no. 1 only remains active until you load another menu. Even after you turn off the printer the menu that was active last remains the active menu and when you switch the printer on again this menu is loaded automatically.

For example, to change from menu no. 1 to menu no. 3:
