3.4.3.5 'Printer'
Printer Operation (Procedure Mode and
Test Mode only)
Using the Procedure mode print facility, the
9500B can deliver a printed certificate, whose
style is also determined in Configuration mode.
In Test mode, test results can also be printed —
in a pre-determined format. The results are
stored until the print command is given after
the test is over. The printer does not need to be
selected in Configuration mode, unless the
results print is required to conform to the
layout of a particular type of printer.
The printer is set up only when an attempt is
made to print, following two types of occasion:
a. printer type is changed in Config mode;
b. 9500B is powered on.
Printer Type Selection
1. For access to select and enable a particular
printer type (or one using the same
formatting), press the PRINTER screen
key on the 'Present Settings' screen.
2. This transfers to a 'Configuration' screen
to change 'The current printer type':
3. Power-on default is DISABLE.
Use the screen keys to select the type of
printer on the interface, or to disable direct
printing.
4. EXIT returns to the 'Present Settings' menu
screen.
User Defined Printer Type
5. If the type of printer you are using does not
conform to one of those listed, press the
USER DEFINED screen key. This
transfers to a 'Configuration' screen
designed to enter the initialisation control
codes for your printer:
(continued overleaf)
6. Obtain the initialisation control codes from
your printer's operating manual. If
necessary, convert the codes to decimal.
Use the 9500B keypad to type the decimal
codes, separated by spaces (→): the new
string replaces the old. Press the ↵ key.
6. EXIT returns to the 'current printer type'
screen.
3. To change the default, press the required
screen key on the right.
4. Press EXIT to return to the 'Present Settings'
screen
The new default will be incorporated into the
list. Next time the line power is turned from
