3-7. Keyboard mode
The printers of the EZPi1000 series support keyboards with a PS/2 interface. Here is how
you connect a PS/2 keyboard:
1. Switch off the printer and plug the PS/2 connector into the appropriate printer port.
2. Switch on the printer. The message "Keyboard mode [Y/N]" is shown on the display.
Press the FEED button on the printer or the ENTER key on the keyboard to switch to
keyboard mode.
In keyboard mode, you can go back to the previous page at any time by pressing the
ESC key on the keyboard or the CANCEL button on the printer. If you keep going back,
you will eventually be prompted to exit keyboard mode. To exit keyboard mode, press
the ENTER key on the keyboard or the FEED button on the printer when the message "Exit
keyboard mode? [Y/N]" appears on the display. To switch back to keyboard mode,
either start up the printer again or select "Keyboard mode" in settings mode. If you wish
to make any changes to the keyboard settings, please refer to the "Settings diagram" (in
Section 3.3).
