Switch A-2: Does your software download characters to the printer'?
In order to download characters this switch must be in the OFF position. The
printer then uses its RAM memory for storing character patterns and
provides only a one-line print buffer. If you leave this switch ON, the printer
uses its RAM memory as an input buffer, allowing the computer to send data
faster than the printer prints.
Switch A-3: Do you want an automatic line feed?
If you leave this switch in the ON position, a separate line-feed code is
required from your computer to obtain a line feed.
If you move this switch to the OFF position, the printer performs both a
carriage return and line feed each time it receives a carriage-return code.
Most computer systems send a line feed code, or both a carriage return and
line feed, at the end of each line, so this switch should be left ON.
If you get double line spacing when you expect single spacing, or if lines
overprint each other, try changing the setting of this switch.
Switch A-4: Are you going to use the automatic sheet feeder (ASF)?
In order to use the automatic sheet feeder SF-lODN, move this switch to the
OFF position. Otherwise leave it ON.
Switch B-l: Are you going to print on multi-part paper?
You can use up to 3-ply paper when this switch is ON. If you want to print
on 4-ply paper, set this switch to the OFF position.
Switch B-2: Do you want the printer to stop printing at the end of the paper,
or to keep printing?
When this switch is OFF the printer ignores the paper-out detector and prints
down to (and beyond) the bottom edge. Otherwise leave it ON.
Switch B-3: Do you want to advance paper automatically at the end of
printing?
You can select the Tear Off function with this switch OFF.
When using fanfold paper, the Tear Off function allows you to tear off one
sheet of paper without fully advancing the following sheet.
Switch B-4: This switch is used for technical purpose only. Leave this
switch ON.
