Front Panel Button Usage
The Front Panel Button can be used to accomplish the following tasks:
Wake Up If the printer is in SleepMode (all the status lights are off
while the printer is plugged in to a power source) the
printer will wake up to a ready state when the button is
briefly pushed and released.
Self Test Make sure that the Ready (bottom) Light is on and other
lights are off. If necessary, wake up the printer.
Briefly press and release the button. The Data (middle)
Light comes on, the Ready (bottom) Light blinks, and
the self test page prints.
Printer Reset Press and hold the button until the three front panel
lights begin to blink quickly in succession (about 5
seconds), then let go of the button.
After resetting, the Ready (bottom) Light will remain lit if
there are no printer errors. (Make sure there is paper in
the printer or the error light will remain on.) The reset
will return the printer to the factory default values (any
downloaded fonts will be removed from memory
).
Resume
(from Manual
Feed)
If the software application is set to Manual Feed, briefly
press and release the button to print each page.
Continue
(from memory
error)
If the printer has stopped printing because a page is too
complex, press and release the button to continue. See
suggestions on “Error: Page Too Complex” earlier in this
chapter.
Form Feed If the Data (middle) Light and the Ready (bottom) Light
both remain on, there is unprinted data still in the printer.
This usually happens when you perform a “print screen”
function in DOS or use software that does not send an
“end-of-job” or “form feed” command when it finishes
printing a file. Briefly press and release the button to
print the remaining data.
