Initialization
The printer can be initialized (returned to a fixed set of conditions) in
three ways:
Hardware initialization
l
The power is turned on.
l
The printer receives an
INIT
signal
from the parallel interface (pin
31
goes LOW).
The following condition then results:
1)
The printer mechanism is initialized.
2)
The input data buffer is cleared.
3)
The download character set is
cleared.
4)
The print buffer is cleared.
5)
The default values are set.
Software initialization
l
Software sends the
ESC
Q
(initialize
the printer) command.
The following condition then results:
1)
The print buffer is cleared.
2)
The default values are set.
(The last panel settings are
maintained.)
Control panel initialization
l
Hold down the
ALT
button and press
the LOAD/EJECT button.
The following results:
1)
The input data buffer is cleared.
2)
The print buffer is cleared.
3)
The default values are set.
(The last panel settings are kept.)
