Using Special Mode
Your Mobile Printer has two operation modes:
– The Normal mode is used for daily operations like paper handling and printing as
explained in Chapter 2, “Paper Handling," and Chapter 3, “Printing.”
– The Special mode is used to change the printer settings.
The following table summarizes the purpose of each function.

Using Set-Up Mode
Set-Up Mode Function
The Set-Up mode allows you:
– To define a user environment, Macro, which is a printer operating environment for
your application software. The printer operating environment includes the
emulation, font, horizontal and vertical pitches, page length and margins, line mode,
and printing direction. It also includes emulation dependent options like the
character set.
– To define general installation parameters related to the integration in your
environment (e.g., menu language, tear-off control, auto-load control, and
interface).
– To recall all the factory settings (including the user environment and installation
parameters,).
– To define what kind of settings modifications are allowed to avoid accidentally
changing of Set-Up values.
Note:
You may want to use the flowchart at the end of this chapter for quick
reference. The flowchart lists all printer Set-Up functions, options,
and values.
How Set-Up Works
The Set-Up mode consists of Set-Up functions which correspond to the printer settings
described in the previous page. Each function generally has many options which correspond
to the print features to be changed. Each option includes many parameters values to be
selected. All the Set-Up functions, options, and values are printed in a logical sequence on
the paper when you enter the Set-Up mode, including the usage of buttons. You can
perform all the Set-Up operations by using buttons on the control panel in the following order:
– Navigating through the option menu structure.
– Selecting a new value for an option.
– Saving your new printer configuration (permanently or temporarily).
