SelecType Features and Solutions
Some software sends a reset code before it begins printing. This can-
cels any SelecType settings. If you find that SelecType does not change
your printing, the reset code is probably the reason. The solution is to
use the installation program for your software to remove all codes from
the initialization sequence. See your software manual for details.
If you want to cancel the modes you have set with SelecType, you
can turn your printer off and back on with the power switch on the left
side of the printer. This cancels all SelecType settings, returns your
LX-90 to its defaults, resets the top of page, and empties the contents
of the buffer, including any user-defined characters that you have
stored there.
Occasionally you may wish to cancel one or more modes with
SelecType instead of resetting the printer with power switch. To cancel
all modes controlled by SelecType, simply enter SelecType mode and
then press the
FF
useful when you make a mistake while setting codes and want to start
over again, and it does not interfere with top of page, user-defined char-
acters, or other items that are not controlled by SelecType.
If you do make a mistake while using SelecType, just press the
button to turn off SelecType and then turn it on again and press the
button before you press the
FF
In fact, some users like to use the
SelecType setting each time they use SelecType. If you want to be
absolutely certain that no previous settings interfere with your use of
SelecType, always press the
enter SelecType mode. For this procedure, after you press the

once, and then make and set your selection or selections as outlined in
Chapter 2.
You can also cancel individual modes with SelecType if you wish.
You do this with the same procedure that sets them. When a mode is
already set, selecting it again cancels it, as demonstrated in the exam-
ple below.
Suppose that you have set emphasized and NLQ Modes and then
you decide that you don't want emphasized. You can either cancel all
the modes and reset NLQ, or you can use the following steps to cancel
emphasized and leave NLQ.
