If you want to change any of the configuration settings (for example, line widths) you can do this by simply marking your changes on the Setup Sheet and feeding it back into the printer. The printer will read your request and re-configure itself automatically. Each time you print one of these Setup Sheets it shows the printer's latest configuration-and so please keep the latest one filed with your Quick Reference Guide in the pocket at the side of the printer, so that a service engineer would know the current configuration even if the printer is temporarily inoperable. * The "addressable" resolution refers to the smallest movement the print head can make between dots rather than to the size of the dot. xii
