Using the Feed button operation

Opening the printer cover, and then continuously pressing the feed button for 5 or 15 seconds trigger the printer application to process USB Type setting change. This process repeats if the feed button is released and then pressed again while the printer cover is still open. Closing the printer cover triggers the printer application to print the diagnostic form and reboot the printer to apply the new USB Type setting.

These procedures are applicable to NCR 7199 Series ii only.
