Problem

Solutions: This printer can operate in its native mode and four emulation modes. Any software used with this printer must support one of theses modes. Many software packages support two or more of the available modes. The following is a guide to mode selection.

Native Mode -
This is the printer's best mode because it makes all the printer's fonts available in any desired point size. It also provides graphics.
Note:      Many software packages support this mode under the name of POSTSCRIPT, LaserWriter, or LaserWriter Plus.

HP LaserJet Series II -
This is the printer's second best mode. It does not use all of the printer's built-in fonts, but it still provides a good selection which can be supplemented by downloaded fonts. It also supports graphics.

Diablo 630 -
This mode enables you to use software from the pre-laser-printer days. The printer's capabilities in this mode are limited to four fonts and comparatively coarse graphics.

Line Printer Emulation -
This mode prints unadorned text, such as computer program listings, in much the same way as they would appear on the computer screen. It provides a single font without graphics.

Hexadecimal Dump -
This mode is useful in software engineering work. The printer prints the data it receives in hexadecimal code form.

Note:      Whichever mode you choose, it is essential that your software and the printer be set to the same mode. Each of these modes uses a completely different command system. The printer will not print correctly unless the modes match.

Switching Modes:
There are two ways to switch the printer between native and emulation mode. One is to press the Manual Feed - FF key combination on the printer's control panel. The other is to send the character sequence !EM! (to enter emulation mode) or !KP! (to return to native mode).
