I Installation/Support Tips I Software The type of printer installed on your system must be identified for each software package. This is usually done through a setup menu. If this printer is not listed in your program, look in the printer User’s Manual for the next-best model selection. DIP Switch Settings The default settings will usually work for most applications, but they should be checked before using the printer This will avoid unexpected results. Cut - Sheet Feeder/ Single - Sheet Operation The page length will have to be adjusted (shortened) to 61 lines per page if your software does not properly support cut -sheet paper. There will be lines from the first page printed at the top of the second page if the page length IS not set correctly. 24 - Pin Printers 12/12/68 L - 1 0 0 0 - 5
