DIP Switches The FX printers have two sets of internal switches which are used by the printer to determine the default mode on power-up. The switches are under the upper right vent.

DIP Switches
The FX printers have two sets of internal switches which are used by
the printer to determine the default mode on power-up. The switches
are under the upper right vent. As outlined in Chapter
1,
the vent
screw must be removed with a Phillips-head screwdriver in order to
take the cover off.
Since switch settings are only checked by the printer on power-up,
all switch setting should be done with the power off. The printer will
not recognize changes made in switch settings when the power is on
until the printer is turned off and then on again.
The factory sets and numbers the switches in the following way:
