This position remains valid until you power off the printer. If you want to
retain this positio even after you turn off the power, store it using the Macro
Definition function, which is described later.
Note that you can only change this value immediately after loading paper. If
you feed paper, you cannot change the auto loading value.
Clearing the buffer/All reset
The printer stores received data in a large memory buffer. This creates a
problem when you want to abandon a printing job and restart: the printer
may be holding more data in its buffer than it has actually printed, and this
uprinted data must be cleared out before restarting. Turning power off is one
way to clear the buffer, but there is another way:
1. Halt the printing program on the computer. If printing stops immediately,
the buffer is clear and the rest of this procedure is unnecessary. If printing
does not stop, continue as follows:
2. Press the ON LINE button to set the printer off-line. Printing will now
stop, but there may be data remaining in the buffer.
3. Press and hold down the FONT button down.
4. While pressing the FONT button down, press and hold down the
ON LINE button. Continue holding these two buttons down and you will
hear a beep tone signaling that the buffer has been cleared. If you hold
these buttons down longer, you will hear three beep tones and the printer
has been initialized to the power-on default settings.
5. Release these buttotns, make any necessary control panel settings, then
set the printer back on-line.
It is essential to stop the printing program on the computer before you go off-
line. Otherwise, when you go back on-line the conputer will start sending
date again and the printer will continue printing, with data missing from
when the buffer was cleared.
