CHAPTER 4
Operator Panel Controls and Switches
Operator Controls consist of one push button and one LED. The location and
functionality of these controls are as follows:
Front of Printer
Paper Feed Button
LED
PAPER FEED BUTTON
The small circular button located on the front of the printer, has several
functions depending on the state of the printer. When the button is pressed, the functions
of the Line Feed button are as follows:
When the printer is in the normal operational state and the panel button is
depressed for a short duration the printer will feed the paper to a point exposing the last
printed line to the user; further depression of the button will result in the activation of the
4 inch/second slew mode in the printer until the button is released.
If the button is depressed during the printer reset cycle its operation varies,
depending on what operating mode you wish to enter. Reference the manual section on
Self -test, or configuring the printer for more details.
POWER/ERROR LED
The power/error LED located above the paper feed button, indicates a
power on state during normal operation. The led will flash when the printer enters any
error state. See Appendix B for the printer flash code definition.
