Verifying the Setting

The procedure described below should be followed to verify that the RS-422A mode had been cor-
rectly set. Print the service status page to verify that the RS-422A mode has been correctly set.

1. Make sure the power switch is off. Plug the power cord into the printer and turn power on.

2. If the printer is on-line, select

      in the Mode Select menu (refer

to Mode Select Menu at the end of this document), and print the service status page.

3. Verify whether the setting is correct by checking the status printed at the bottom of the page.
