(Table1).
zMODE button : use for changing OPTION status. (Error Lamp)
zFEED button : use for changing MODE status. (Power Lamp)
Ex) The defaults of the printer are : RS-232C/ 9600 bps/ 8 data bit / No parity
/ Density Low
If a user wants to modify the defaults with Protocol IrDA / 38400 bps / 7 data
bit/ even parity/ density high
XPress MODE Button until Error Lamp twinkles 5 times and release the
button.
o
You will see the Power Lamp twinkles one time and the Error Lamp
twinkles 1 time.
o
Press the MODE Button one time and the Error Lamp twinkles twice.
(The interface mode has set to Protocol IrDA mode)
XPress FEED button one time, Power Lamp twinkles twice and Error Lamp
twinkles 4 times
o
Press MODE Button one time, Error Lamp twinkles 5 times and press
the MODE Button one more time, the Error Lamp twinkles 6 times
