Function Keys

The pressure-sensitive function keys are located directly below the
status indicators. When pressing the keys, a “beep” verifies
contact.

The function keys permit you to configure the options of the printer.
You can access these options via a structured menu which is
displayed on the LCD. To navigate through the options, use the UP,
DOWN, NEXT, and PREV keys. Press ENTER to select an option
that appears on the LCD.

The purpose of each function key (under normal printing mode) is
defined below.

For specific procedures and information regarding the configuration
menu, see Chapter 3.

NOTE: You can enable or disable the panel key sound via the

configuration menu.

ONLINE Key

The ONLINE key toggles the printer online and offline.

To place the printer online, press ONLINE until the ONLINE
status indicator remains continuously lit. The LCD displays
“ONLINE,” along with the name of the current emulation. The
printer can now receive and process data and print.

To place the printer offline, press ONLINE until the ONLINE
status indicator blinks. The LCD displays “OFFLINE.” The
printer stops processing and printing any new data, except for
any pages in process.

To start downloading files to the printer, hold down the ONLINE
+ PAGE EJECT keys while the power is cycling. See page 93
for more information.

NOTE: When the printer is not in an error state, pressing ONLINE

in any level of the configuration menu causes the printer to
accept any configuration changes you have entered and
return to online status.
