Optional Cards
Cards contain either printer emulations, such as HP-GL, or
typefaces (fonts) which are not resident on the printer. The printer
supports two cards at once. Many optional cards are available. For
a more complete listing than what is covered here, contact your
QMS vendor.
Caution: The printer must be offline before inserting or removing
cards. Press the online button to turn the indicator off. If you forget
to take the printer offline, turn the printer power off and back on to
regain access to the printer’s resident fonts and data stored in the
printer’s memory. Also remember that fonts cards may go in either
slot A or B; however, emulation cards only go in slot B.
To install a card
1. Make sure the printer is offline. The indicator light should be
off.
2. To insert a font card, slide it into either slot A or B (fig. 4.11)
with the label side facing up. You should hear the card snap
into place.
