10 Choosing the Operating Mode with DIP Switches
The FX has 12 switches that allow you to change many of the
printer’s settings to suit your individual needs. You may need to change
one or two of them now. These switches, known as DIP (Dual In-line
Package) switches, are in the back of the printer. See Figure 1-14.

The switches are in two groups and are numbered, as shown in
Figure 1-14. As you can see in the example below, the first part
of the self test shows the settings of the switches. You will find
your own self test printout helpful as you use this section.
