Switching between on-line and off-line
• Press the ON LINE button to switch the printer between on-line and
off-line modes.
• When the printer is on-line, the ON LINE indicator is lit and the
printer can receive data from the computer. Make sure that the printer
is on-line whenever you are trying to print.
• When the printer is off-line, the ON LINE indicator is off, which
means that the printer cannot receive any data.
• Note that you can also press the ON LINE button while a printing
operation is in progress to stop the printing.

When you resume printing, the printer reverse feeds the paper to its
former position.
