Lights
Power
On when the printer is on.
Error
On or flashes in combination with other lights to
indicate printing problems or errors. For help with
printing errors, see Chapter 4.
Condensed
On when condensed mode is selected. In this mode,
the printer prints selected fonts at 60% of their width
so that more characters can fit on a page.
Economy
On when economy printing mode is selected. In
economy mode the printer uses less ink by printing
fewer dots per character. It also makes black printing
appear gray. Use this mode for rough drafts of text
only that are printed from DOS applications.
Pause
On when printing is paused and flashes when you
clean the print heads or replace a print head unit or
ink cartridge. Never turn off the printer when the
Pause
light is flashing.
The
Pause
light also flashes when an error occurs.

This section describes the control panel button functions as
well as certain button combinations and power-on sequences.

clean the print heads, replace the print head unit or
ink cartridge, and other functions.
