SelecType Overview

The SelecType feature gives you a simple means to control your
printer. When you lift the printer cover and use the SelecType panel,
you can control most of the printer's functions-from the simplest to
the most complex.
Use SelecType's menu-based system to do the following:
Change your printer configuration without adjusting any DIP
l
switches
Select most font or print options without entering software
l
commands.
You don't have to learn everything about SelecType to use your
printer, but a basic understanding of the menu structure and the
SelecType panel helps you control the most common functions
quickly.
When you are in SelecType mode, the left digit of the display shows
a number or letter corresponding to one of SelecType's 16 menus.
The right digit of the display shows a number or letter
corresponding to an option for that menu. See your Quick Reference
card for complete tables of SelecType menus and options.
SelecType panel buttons and their functions are listed below. Lift
the printer cover to reach the SelecType panel.
