Chapter 4

Using the Operator Panel

Turning On the Printer

You can control basic printer operations through the operator panel.
The indicator lights reflect the current status and modes of the printer.

Most software applications, such as word processing programs,
spreadsheets, and databases, automatically handle the printer control
operations. For example, your word processing program tells the printer
what typeface to use and when to perform a line feed or form feed.

If, for some reason, your application program does not perform these
basic functions, you can control them using the operator panel. You can
also select printer-specific functions, such as the print mode, and you
can start the self tests.

The following sections of this chapter describe how you use these
buttons to select printer functions.
