Changing the Default Settings
While you can often set the default settings through your
application software or printer driver, you may need to change a
default setting from the printer’s control panel using the default
setting mode. The table below lists the default settings (in bold)
and options you can select in this mode. * These settings take effect only when IBM 2390 Plus emulation is
selected.
Follow the steps below to enter the default setting mode and
change the printer’s default settings.
To print all the instructions, you need 5 sheets of letter-
or A4-size single-sheet paper or 5 pages of continuous
paper. If you use single sheets without a cut-sheet
feeder, you need to load a new sheet each time the
printer ejects a printed sheet.
1. Make sure paper is loaded and the printer is turned off.
Whenever you turn off the printer, wait at least 5
seconds before turning it back on; otherwise you may
damage the printer.
2. While holding down the Font button, turn on the printer.
The printer enters the default setting mode and prints the
language selection instructions.
3. If you need to select a different language, press the Font
button until the Font lights indicate the language you want,
as described in the language selection instructions.
4. Press the Tear Off/Special Paper button to confirm your
language selection and print the current default settings.
5. If you do not need to change any settings, go to step 6.
If you want to change any of the default settings, press the
Tear Off button to print the instructions (three pages) in
the language you selected.
Follow these instructions to change the default settings
using the buttons on the printer’s control panel.
