Prepare the Printer

1.

Load the printer with paper. (Follow the loading instructions

under the Operation chapter.) Install cartridges.

2. Move the carriage using the Arrow keys so that the carriage

notch is over the paper and roughly one inch from the right

paper edge.

3.

Put the printer in START (green light) mode by pressing the

Set Origin

key. (See the Operation chapter for more details on

preparing to plot.)

4.

Start the Control Center software. Ensure that there are no er-

rors when the program tries to communicate with the printer.

If errors occur, check the cables and ensure that the correct port

number and baud rate are selected. (See Connect the printer to

the Computer: Overview

in the Installation chapter for informa-

tion on serial port connections.)
