Operator Controls
MZ series printer controls are detailed below and in Figure 9.
The printer has two control buttons and four multipurpose
indicators.
The Power Button turns the printer on and off.
The Feed Button advances a length of media until it is re-

1. There is no media loaded.
2. The media cover is open.
3. If both the above conditions are met and the error
light is still flashing, there could be no application load-
