buttons let you activate
the printer and control print darkness. The
READY light tells you the printer is ready to
print, and signals you if there's a printing
prob-
lem, such as running out of ribbon or paper.
The
PAPER DOOR
and
PAPER WINDOW
open
to allow you to insert paper and reach the
printhead. Open the
RIBBON DOOR
to
change the ribbon.
You can manually advance paper with the
PA-
PER ADVANCE KNOB

The
PAPER LEVER
disengages the friction-feed
mechanism so you can insert paper easily.
The

inter-
face between your computer and OKIMATE
.
This
fits into thr
MODULE
SLOT, and is
cov-
ered by the
LOCKING COVER
. The locking
cover also serves as a tool for removing the
control module.

different sizes and types of paper. The left
guide allows you to set your margin when
us-
ing computer paper.
