other control panel features
The control panel of your printer also gives you access to several
special functions.
Self test:
Micro-adjustment:
Data dump:
Both a draft and NLQ self test function
are built into the printer. The self test
printout lets you check the current DIP
switch settings and operating status of the
printer. You can start the printer's self test
by holding down the LINE FEED button or
the FORM FEED button while switching the
printer on. See the section on running the
self test in Chapter 1 for more information.
By pressing the FORM FEED and LINE FEED
buttons immediately after loading paper or
when using short tear-off, you can make
fine adjustments to the loading and short
tear-off positions. See the sections on
adjusting the loading position and using
short tear-off later in this chapter.
By holding down both the LINE FEED and
FORM FEED buttons while turning on the
printer, you turn on the data dump mode.
This feature allows advanced users to
locate the source of communications
problems between the computer and
printer. See the section on using the data
dump mode later in this chapter for more
information.
