Function Keys
• ON LINE
Pressing this key places the printer offline so that the printer can perform
some functions independent from the host system. In the offline mode, data
is not received. When the printer is offline, pressing the key places the
printer online and ready to receive data from the host system.
• RESET
When the RESET key is pressed, the printer immediately enters the reset
state and prepares for the initialize operation, which is nearly the same
initialize operation as when the power is turned on.
The following keys are active only in the offline mode:
• LF/RLF
(Line feed and reverse line feed)
When the LF/RLF key is pressed, paper is fed per the line spacing at the 6
line per inch forward or backward, respectively.
While this key is pressed and held, the paper is continuously fed forward or
backward, respectively.
• FF
(Form feed)
Pressing this key feeds the paper to the next top of form position when the
paper is already loaded. Single sheet paper is fed to eject. Pressing this key
loads the paper when the paper is not loaded.
