B2 - Paper out
If B2 is ON, the printer can detect when there is no more
paper and will stop printing. If B2 is OFF, the printer
can print right down to the bottom of the page. However,
there is also the danger that it may print past the end of
the paper, which may cause damage to the print head
and platen.
B3 - Ink ribbon type
If B3 is ON, you can use either a color or a monochrome
ribbon. If B3 is OFF, you should only use a monochrome
ribbon. You can use a monochrome
ribbon with B3 ON,
however, its life will be shorter. If you try to use a color
ribbon with B3 OFF, colors will be printed in unexpected
ways.
B4 - Reserved
This switch should be left ON.
B5 - Time-out
printing
If B5 is ON, the printer prints data as soon as it is
received from the computer. If B5 is OFF, the printer
accumulates
data in its buffer and prints out pages at
regular intervals.
Cl to C3 - Page length
If you are using 11" sheets, these three switches should
be ON. The settings appropriate
to various page sizes
are shown in the table.
