1 – 14 Setting Up
It is recommended that you set the printer for the language or character
set you use most. You can use a program command (see Page 3–9) to
change to another language within a document, so it is not necessary to
change these switch settings if you use more than one language.
Switch 6
is the automatic line feed selection. Before shipment, it is set to
OFF. If you discover that your text is being overprinted, it may be
because your computer does not send a line feed at the end of a line. In
that event, set this switch to ON and the printer will insert an automatic
line feed at the end of each line. If your computer automatically sends a
line feed at the end of every line you can use this feature to double space
a document by setting it to the ON position.
Switch 7
selects the slashed or unslashed zero font. The slashed zero font
should be chosen when it is important to distinguish between a zero and
a capital O. The switch is set to OFF to select the unslashed zero and to
ON to select the slashed zero.
Switch 8
selects the roll paper stand (RPS) or the cut-sheet feeder (CSF)
To select the cut-sheet feeder move this switch to the ON position.
Changing the DIP-switch settings
All the switches are set to OFF when the printer leaves the factory.
To reset the switches, proceed as follows:
1 . Make sure the printer is OFF and the power cable is unplugged.
2.
Using a Phillips-head screwdriver, remove the screw on the switch
cover at the back of the printer and remove the cover.
3.
Use a sharp tipped instrument, such as a ballpoint pen or toothpick,
to slide the appropriate switch(es) to the required new setting.
4.
Replace the switch cover and tighten the screw.
