cover. Then close the paper guide cover.

Your Printer’s Default Settings

While you can often set the default settings through your
application software or printer driver, you may need to change a
default setting from the printer’s control panel using the default
setting mode. The table below lists the default settings (in bold)
and options you can select in this mode.

* These settings take effect only when IBM 2390 Plus emulation is

selected.

Changing Default Settings

Follow the steps below to enter the default setting mode and
change the printer’s default settings.

To print the language selection and default setting

mode instructions, you need 5 sheets of letter- or

A4-size single-sheet paper or 5 pages of continuous

paper. If you use single sheets, you need to load a new

sheet each time the printer ejects a printed sheet.

1. Make sure paper is loaded and the printer is turned off.

Whenever you turn off the printer, wait at least 5

seconds before turning it back on; otherwise you may

damage the printer.

2. While holding down the

Font

button, turn on the printer.

The printer enters the default-setting mode and prints the
language selection instructions.

3. If you need to select a different language, press the

Font

button until the Font lights indicate the language you want,
as described in the language selection instructions.

4. Press the

Tear Off/Bin

button to confirm your language

selection and print the current default settings.

5. If you do not need to change any settings, go to step 6.

If you want to change any of the default settings, press the

Tear Off/Bin

button to print the instructions (three pages)

in the language you selected.

Follow these instructions to change the default settings
using the buttons on the printer’s control panel.

The arrows on the instruction sheets indicate the

printer’s current settings.

6. When you finish, turn off the printer and exit the default

setting mode. The current settings remain in effect until
you change them again.

Bidirectional Alignment

If you notice that the vertical lines in your printout are not
properly aligned, you can use the printer’s bidirectional
adjustment mode to correct this problem.

To complete the steps below, you need 5 single sheets

or 5 pages of continuous paper. If you use single

sheets, you need to load a new sheet of paper each

time the printer ejects a printed sheet onto the paper

guide.

1. Make sure paper is loaded and the printer is turned off.

Whenever you turn off the printer, wait at least 5

seconds before turning it back on; otherwise you may

damage the printer.
