Error indicator Lights up when an error occurs. [Cancel] key Press to cancel printing and other operations. [Menu/Select] key Press to display the menu and select settings.
Installation and operation precautions Basic operations Turning on the machine Set the power switch to “n”. Check that the control panel is turned on. Detail When the machine is turned on, the printer starts up and the message “Now warming-up.” appears. After the message “Ready to print.” ap- pears and the Ready indicator lights up, a print job can be received.
Installation and operation precautions Turning off the machine Set the power switch to [o]. Reminder When the power switch is turned off, then on again, wait at least 10 sec- onds to turn it on after turning it off. If there is no wait period between turning the power switch off, then on again, the machine may not function properly.
Installation and operation precautions Automatically canceling the settings (automatic panel reset) If no operation is performed for a specified length of time while settings are being changed, settings that have not been programmed are cleared and re- turn to their defaults. This is the automatic panel reset operation.
Installation and operation precautions Automatically conserving energy (Sleep mode) If no operation is performed for a specified length of time, the machine auto- matically enters a mode where it conserves energy. Although the machine conserves more energy in Sleep mode than in Low Power mode, the machine must warm up when Sleep mode is canceled to begin printing again, therefore taking more preparation time than Low Power mode.
