BASIC PRINTING
The following example explains how to print a document from WordPad.
Before printing, make sure that the correct size of paper for your document has been loaded in the machine.
1
Make sure that the ONLINE indicator
on the operation panel is lit.
If the ONLINE indicator is not on, press the [PRINT]
key to switch to printer mode and then use the [
] key
to select "ONLINE".
The status of the printer function is indicated by the
ONLINE and DATA indicators above the [PRINT] key.
2
Start WordPad and open the
document that you wish to print.
3
Select [Print] from the application's
[File] menu.
The "Print" dialog box will appear.
4
Make sure that "SHARP MX-xxxx" is
selected as the printer.
If you need to change any print settings, click the
[Preferences] button to open the printer driver
setup screen.
The printer driver setup screen will appear.
Windows 2000 does not have the [Preferences]
button in this dialog box. Select settings as
needed on each of the tabs in the setup screen
and click the [OK] button.
