Menu configurations
Every printer is shipped with factory default settings. Basic settings such
as emulation, character size, form length etc., which many applications
make use of, are set. At the end of this chapter you will find a
menu printout
which shows you the printer’s default settings.
Your printer allows you to set and use five independent menu configura-
tions. If one of your applications for example requires an IBM printer
while another program works better with an EPSON printer, you can set
an IBM emulation configuration with the desired settings, and set the sec-
ond configuration as an EPSON emulation.
The active menu is always the one you used last. When you switch on
the printer for the very first time, menu no. 1 is loaded. Menu no. 1 only
remains active until you load another menu. Even after you turn off the
printer the menu that was active last remains the active menu and when
you switch the printer on again this menu is loaded automatically.
For example, to change from menu no. 1 to menu no. 3:
