If the ON LINE key is ON, display shows “Printer Online / Waiting for Data” and the light is lit. This
means that the Printer is ready to print the job when it is sent. To have the Printer start printing immediately
when the job is sent you must also have the Automatic Feed feature turned ON. If the ON LINE key is
OFF, display shows “Printer Offline / ENTER for Paper Feed”. In this condition Printer can feed paper.

Print”. To print, first press the ON LINE key to put the Printer on line. If you sent data and the
Printer is set up to not start feeding automatically and the ON LINE key is lit, then the display shows
“Printer Online / ENTER to Start Feed”.

when the Printer is placed in any of the Menu Modes, ENTER is used to choose the options available.

Printer Driver Properties
Printer Driver describes to the Printer how to print your job. It controls Printer operation and allows you
to send fixed and variable text and graphics to the Printer. Within your data management software is a
“Print” function. In that “Print” function is a Properties button. It is through Properties that you control
Printer output. The following describes the Properties Windows for the Address Printer 5 Driver and
how to use it to customize Printer output.
