Using the Printer with Software

A portion of the application software called the printer driver
translates the margins, fonts, and all the other selections you
have entered into control codes that the printer understands.
You load the software's printer driver when you select a printer
from the software menu.
Press to set the printer on line after you supply
paper. (The printer is off line when the paper is
out.)
Press to stop printing or to clear remaining data.
Press to print out data in the printer's memory.
(This button ejects the page even though the
printer has not received a form feed command.)
Hold down the LEVEL 2 button while you
turn on the printer to enter data dump
(hex dump) mode. This feature helps you
find the cause of communication problems
between the computer and printer. For
more information, see the section on data
dump in Chapter 3, "Troubleshooting."
