Digital BW, The Print

OK, I just got it to work, but it was a little different then procedure
1 for the 1270 type printer.

Here is what I did for the 1160:


Turn off your printer, ensuring that the print head is at it's home location
and locked in place as normal; 

2. Power off the printer at the wall or by removing the power cable, for at
least 20 seconds; 

3. When you restore power to the printer at the wall socket or by
reinserting the cable, if the lights come back on straight away, the
printer's power switch was 'on' - switch it off and return to step 1;
 
4. Hold down the paper-feed button and the button with the ink-drops
next to it, and then turn on the printer, still holding the buttons
down; 

5. When the paper-out LED flashes, release the buttons; 

6. Press and hold the button with the ink-drops until lights flash -
this will
take a few seconds (i.e. then release the button); 

7. The printer will now attempt to reset, including resetting the EEPROM
memory and running a short (about 10 seconds) cleaning cycle. 

Thanks for all your help.
