Panel lock mode
When the printer is in the panel lock mode, the mode settings you make
on the control panel are used even if your software tries to override the
mode. Use the following procedure to enter the panel lock mode.
1. While holding down the SET/PARK/EJECT button, press the LINE
FEED button. A short buzzer sounds once.
To exit from the panel lock mode, press the LINE FEED button while
holding down the SET/PARK/EJECT button. A short buzzer sounds
twice.

1. While holding down the SET/PARK/EJECT button, press the ON
LINE button. Keep both buttons held down until the printer beeps
twice.
