Press the ENTER key. Processing appears, then
Waiting.
In this state, send the file from the computer to the
printer.
The file is written onto the memory card given a
destination name (also referred to as a partition
name) which the printer automatically assigns one
after another as follows:
DataS001 (first data),
DataS002 (second data),
DataS003 (third data)...
In the example above, if the file TEST.TXT is the
first data to be written onto the memory card, the
destination name will be DataS001.
As the printer receives data, the message display
changes to Processing, then when the end of the data
is received, the message display changes to Waiting.
Check that the message display has changed to
Waiting, then press the GO key. This writes the file
to the memory card and instructs the printer to au-
tomatically print out a memory card write informa-
tion page as shown below.

Repeat above steps until you have transferred all data
(files) that you want to write to the memory card.
Each time you finish writing data, a memory card
write information page is printed from the printer
showing the information explained in step 8 above,
but pertaining only to the data just written. To see all
data contained in the memory card at once, print a list
of data names as explained. See
