Introduction
About Part II of the
operator’s manual The reference manual contains a detailed description of the printer, its char-
acteristic features and additional information.
If you need to operate your printer as soon as possible, it is sufficient to
read
Installing the printer
in the Operator’s manual. For further information
and correct use of your printer the complete operator’s manual must be
read.
The reference manual is divided into three chapters with their titles printed
in the top margin of the page. The current chapter is marked by a black bar.
The chapters of this manual describe the following topics:
■Chapter 1 Operation contains information on programming your printer via
the operating panel.
■Chapter 2 Emulations deals with programming via the interface. The avail-
able programming sequences are listed. (Detailed information about these
codes are available in an optional Programmer’s Application Manual which
can be purchased separately.)
■Chapter 3 Troubleshooting, care and maintenance helps you to deal with
common problems and shows you how to use the test and adjustment
functions of your printer. Hints on identifying and repairing faults yourself are
provided. At the end of the chapter, cleaning and care of your printer are
described.
■Appendix A Character sets lists the available character sets.
■Appendix B Interfaces explains the interfaces.
■Appendix C Specifications informs you about the technical specifications of
your printer and the paper which should be used.
■Appendix D Options and accessories contains information about options
and accessories you can purchase for your printer.

Operation 1
The control panel 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 (character density,
font, paper path) directly without having to enter them via the menu. The
parameters character density, paper path and font can also be selected in
the printer menu.
In the
Menu mode
printer settings (line spacing, size of the interface buffer
etc.) can be altered and saved permanently.

The LC display The LC display tells you all the important printer settings and informs you
which functions are currently assigned to which keys.
In Normal mode the upper line tells you the printer’s status (Online or
Offline mode – in the example below the printer is in the Online mode), and
the selected paperpath (below:
Trac.1 = push tractor mode).
The second line informs you which functions are currently assigned to
which keys. The word or symbol directly above a key tells you the current
function of the key. In our example the right key is assigned with the Tear
function. If you were to press this key the loaded fanfold paper would be
advanced to the tear position.
