Starting or Stopping Printing
Starting Printing
Before you start to print, make sure that paper is loaded. Also, verify that the paper select
lever and the print gap lever are set to the appropriate position.
To start printing, make sure that the Ready indicator is lit (the printer is ready). If not so,
press the
SEL
/
MENU
key to place the printer in the Ready state. Start your print job.
Stopping Printing
To stop printing, press the
SEL
/
MENU
key to place the printer in the Pause state. The
printer stops after printing the current line. You can also use your software to stop print-
ing, but there will be a slight delay before printing stops. After the printer enters the Pause
state, it still receives data until the print buffer becomes full of new data.
The data in the print buffer will be lost if you turn the printer off.
Resuming Printing
To resume printing, press the
SEL
/
MENU
key again. To cancel printing, use the cancel
commands provided by your software or computer. To clear the print buffer, turn the
printer off.
Any data sent to the print buffer before you canceled printing will be lost.
Resuming from a Paper-Out
The printer can “sense” when paper runs out. The printer stops printing and lights the
ALARM
indicator. To resume printing when paper runs out, follow the procedures
described below:
1
Install paper on the forms tractor unit or on the cut sheet feeder as described in
Chapter 2,
“Operating the printer”
.
2
To load the first sheet of paper, press the
FF/LOAD
key for continuous forms. Sin-
gle sheets are automatically loaded unless you change the factory default setting. The
ALARM
indicator will turn off and the printer resumes printing.
