Key Functions
Online/Offline Key
This key toggles the printer between Online and Offline states, or exits from
the menu directly to an Online state. When the printer is Online, the indicator
will light, and the printer is ready to accept data from the host. When it's
Offline, it cannot accept host data. In the Offline state, you may change
parameter selections, load paper, and so on.
LF Key (Line Feed)
This key advances the paper one line. It performs the same function whether
the printer is Online or Offline. You may auto-repeat this command by holding
down the key.
While Online With Data Buffered
Any buffered data falling in the next line (as defined by the current LPI set-
ting), prints. This repeats upon subsequent LF keystrokes as long as there is
data in the buffers. If pressed while printing is in progress, the printer ignores
the key command and maintains the Top of Form position.
While Online with No Data Buffered
Paper advances one line. While printing is in progress, the printer ignores the
command and maintains the Top of Form position.
While in a Fault Condition
Paper advances one line. No data is printed and the Top of Form position
moves down one line. This allows the use of the LF Key to advance paper
while in a Paper Out condition without printing any buffered data.
FF Key (Form Feed)
This key performs the same function whether the printer is Online or Offline.
While Online With Data Buffered
Any buffered data falling between the current form position and the top of the
next form (as defined by the current Form Length setting), prints. This func-
tion repeats upon subsequent FF keystrokes as long as there is data in the
buffers. The printer ignores the command while printing is in progress and
maintains the Top of Form position.
While Offline With No Data Buffered
Paper advances to the top of the next form. The printer ignores this command
while printing is in progress and maintains the Top of Form position.
When In a Fault Condition
Pressing the FF Key while in a Fault Condition advances the paper one form.
No data prints, and the Top of Form position is maintained. This allows the use
of the FF Key to advance paper while in a Paper Out condition, without printing
any buffered data.
