Printer key functionality

The following table contains each printer mode and the result from a short press (when the
Go key is pressed for less than five seconds), and the results from a long press (when the
Go key is pressed for five or more seconds). Scanner keys have no effect on printer
functionality other than the sharing of power resources, which may slow down either
function.

A form feed may occur when the LEDs on the Control Panel are showing a processing
mode. This could occur if the computer sends only part of the page to the printer because
the computer has not completed processing the entire page. When the Go key is pressed
