Features of the PF8 Printers
This section describes the front controls and indicators,
components of the media compartment, and connections located
on the rear of the PF8d and PF8t printers.
Front Controls and Indicators
The PF8 printers are controlled by a Power switch, a Feed
button, and a multi-color status LED.
The Power switch is located on the side of the PF8d and on the
back of the PF8t.
You can use the Feed button in two ways:
•Tap it
A quick press-and-release causes the media to advance a short
distance out of the printer.
• Hold it down
Holding the button down when the power is turned on causes
the printer to enter Media Sensing mode. The printer
configuration page prints when you release the button.
There are also cover open buttons located on each side of the
printer which you press to access the media compartment.
