Executing firmware files
Files with the extension .S3B are firmware files. Selecting a firmware file means start-
ing a firmware download. As this is a fundamental intervention to the system, firmware
files are not executed immediately. The query "Firmwaredownload ? No/Yes" de-
mands explicit confirmation of the operator.
The same firmware file remamed to the extension .FOR is executed without que-
rying.
Automatic file execution
If the file DEFAULT.FOR (All letters lower case or all upper case; „Default.for“ doesn´t
work) exists on memory card in the folder \FORMATS, this file is executed automati-
cally at system start. Display during power up, until the file is executed:
If a file \AUTOSTRT.FOR is also existing (in the root directory, not case-sensitive),
it will be executed first. But be aware that standalone-printjobs are only executed prop-
erly, if the relevant file is stored in \FORMATS, as described above.
Additionally usable keys on a keyboard
With an external keyboard connected, the printer can be operated without touching the
buttons of the operation panel. The function keys F5-F8 can be used alternatively to
