Operation
An operating instructions manual is supplied with the
printer. This section provides the additional procedures
required to use the unit with the Series 4400 System.
(a) To obtain a printout at any time, press the PRINT
key on the Main Panel.
(b) To obtain a printout automatically at the end of a
test, enter the key sequence [S1] [6] [+/–] on the key-
