Configuring the Printer 

 
The Configuration Menu allows the user to set general printer 
parameters. The test prints the settings for several functions, and 
partially cuts the paper between each variation. 
The printouts may vary for each model. The test ends with a partial cut 
of the paper, then begins again. A test printout may use several feet of 
paper to complete. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
To start the test: 

1.  Set DIP Switch 1 to ON position (down.) DIP Switch 2 must 

always

 be set to ON position (down.) 

2.  Place paper into the bucket as described in the previous 

section, “Changing Paper.” 

3.  Press the Reset Button. 
4.  Press and hold the Paper Feed Button while closing the cover.
