PRINTING
4-2 User's Manual
Using Commercial Software
Many commercial software packages offer a wide variety of print features,
including some features that are not supported by this printer. For example,
software often provides a wider range of font sizes than the printer can
accommodate. Software also allows you to specify multiple fonts on a page.
To determine which features your software supports and how to select them,
refer to your software documentation.
Using the Control Panel
Use the MENU button to directly select one of the two menus.
Printer control panel
The MENU button specifies MENU1 or MENU2, either of which allows you
to specify different sets of options in advance. Some of the print features
include emulation, print quality, character pitch, and line spacing.
When you first turn the printer on, the MENU 1 indicator is lit; that is, all of
the print features assigned to MENU1 are enabled. However, you can easily
switch to MENU2 before printing. You can also select a resident font other
than the fonts assigned to MENU1 and MENU2.
NOTE
For easy reference, keep a list of your current MENU 1 and MENU 2
settings near the printer. To print a list of current settings, see the section
Printing a List of Selected Options in Chapter 5. You may also want to
use the space provided in Table 4.1 to record your settings.
