Park/Path

Park Function

Pressing this key causes the printer to enter the Park function in either the ready
and not ready state. The continuous forms will back up (reverse the process
direction of) the forms in the forms path.
If continuous forms are currently in the printer for Front Push, Rear Push, or
Push-Pull and the top of the form is beyond the print area, press Park/Path. The
forms will be ejected for tearoff and the printer will display:
If continuous forms are currently in the printer for Rear Pull or special forms that
cannot be moved backwards (for example, labeled continuous forms) for Front,
Rear, or Push-Pull, the printer displays:
If cut-sheet forms are currently in the printer, the printer ejects the form and enters
the not ready condition.
Perform the action requested on the operator panel display. The printer is then
ready for the paper path selection.

Path Function

When no forms are in the current path and the printer is in the not ready state,
pressing Park/Path allows the selection of the different forms paths available on
the printer. When the desired path is displayed, press Start. The forms path
displayed becomes the active forms path and the printer becomes ready. You can
also press Load/Eject or Form/Feed for continuous forms to select the active forms
path.
The forms path selected by Park/Path also becomes the current value for Paper
Source in the Printer Setup category. See "Paper Source" on page 143.

Line Feed

This function is valid only when the printer is not ready.
Press Line Feed to cause the printer to advance the forms one print line, based on
the current LPI setting. If you hold Line Feed more than four seconds, the forms
move continuously until you release the key.
