● A firm,level surfacewhichis fairlyvibration-free
Awayfrom excessiveheat(such as directsunligh~heaters,etc)
● Away fromexcessivehumidity
● Away fmm excessivedust
●
Supplyit with“clean”electricity.Donot connectit to the samecircuitas

● Make sure the line voltage is the voltage specified on the printer’s
identiilcationplate.
To disconnectthe printer,the plug has to be disconnectedfromthe wall
socket,whichhas to be locatedcloseto the printer,and easy to access.
● Installtheprinterwhemthereis sufficientmomforthepaperandanypaper

PAPERINSTALLATIONAND USE
Thischapterdescribesinstructionsforprintingsuchasselectingpapertypes,
adjustingthe printinggap, and installingpaper.
SELECTIONOF PAPER
Yourprinteracceptsany of the followingpapem:
●
●
Singlesheets(cut forms)and stationery
Use the ftictionfeed or the optionalAutomaticSheetFeeder.
Fanfoldforms
Fanfold forms have holes alongthe sides and perforationsbetweenthe
sheets.They = also calledsprocketforms,punchedforms,orjust plain
“computerpaper”.
Printing on or near the perforationsof continuousfanfold forms may
reduceprintingquality,misalignthefanfoldforms,or causea paperjam.
It is nxommendednotto printwithinan amaof oneinchbeforeand after
the perforations.
c Multi-partforms
You canuse multi-partforms that have up to five pats includingthe
originalwhen the Multi-partmode is selectedwith the MemorySwitch
setting.(For details,pleaserefer to Chapter6.)
Use pmssumsensitivemulti-partformswithboth sideedgesgluedand a
differencein thicknessof 0.05mmor less betweenthe side edges. It is
recommendedto use the bottomfeed with the optionalPull TractorUnit
to get fine alignment.
NOTE: Cmeshouldbetakenincolorprintingwithcontinuousmulti-part
forms. Sideedgesof papermightbe damaged.

ADJUSTINGTHE PRINTINGGAP
The distance between the print head and the platen can be adjusted to
accommodatedifferentpaperthicknesses.Tomakethisadjustment,openthe
front cover. The adjustmentlever is located at the left side of the printer
mechanism. Pushing the adjustmentlever backwards narrows the gap;
pullingit forwardswidensthe gap.
There are seven positions,and you can feel the lever clicking into each
position.Thesecondpositionfmmtherear(madcedwith’’=”)is theonemost
commonlyused for singlesheetsof paper.

This printer acceptsfanfoldformsup to 10”wide for the normalcarriage
pfiter, and up to 16”wide for the wide cartiageptinter.
You can load fanfoldpaperwith the followingthree ways:
● Push feed with internaltractorunit
● Bottomfd
with optionalPullTractorUnit
● Push/Pullfwd with internaltractorunit and the optionalPull Tractor
unit.
This sectionwill take you throughthe proceduresfor loading,paxkingand

PRINTERCONTROLCOMMANDS
The printerhas two emulationmodes:Standardmodeand IBMmode.
In staridardmode,the printeremulatesthe functionsof the EpsonEX-800/
EX-1OOO.In IBM mode, the printer emulates the IBM Propnnter III.
Additionalcommandcodesare includedas a supwsetof theseemulations.
The emulationis changedby means of Memory Switchmode. When the
Emulationoptionis setto [STANDARD],theprinterwillbein standardmode,
and when [IBM], the printerwill be in IBM mode (see Chapter6). It is not
possibleto changethe emulationby meansof softwarecontrol.

How theprogram works
Thisprogrambeginsby assigninga numberof printercommandsto BASIC
stringvariables(lines1000to 1070).Youcanfmdmostof thesecommands
nearthe beginningof chapter7.
TheWIDTH“LPT1:“255 statementin line 1090meansintlnitelinewidth.
It preventsthe IBM-PCfrom insertingunwantedcarriagereturnsand line

Next comes the central attractionof the program: a line of text printed

woxicis doneby fourprintercommands:a commandsettingtherightmargin
(line 1370);a centeringcommand(line 1390);a commandto vary theline
spacing(l”mes1410and 1460);and a commandto micro-adjustthe space
betweencharactem(lines 1420and 1470).
Nexttheprogramreturnsto normalspacingandgivesa demonstrationofthe
printer’sword-processingabilities:italicprinting,bold printing,underlining, subscripts,etc.
Therowofcarsymbolsinthenextprintedlineiscreatedbydownloadingtwo
new characterpatterns, which are printed in place of the character“<”

sheets to feed smoothly.
If the left and right guides me too close together, the
paper will not feed smoothly. Move them a little further
auart to allow the pauer feed freely.
If it is, then deselect it.
You can only feed paper in this way the printer is offline. Set the printer off-line and then feed paper.
There are limits to the thickness of paper that can be fed
in this way. Trv with thinner uamx.
Clean the surface of theplatenroller with a cloth barely
dampendcd with a little alcohol.
Iffanfold(continuous)paperisnotbeingfedcotnctly usingtheaactorfeed,
checkthe following:
Check
Is the paper release lever
pushed to the ~ position?
Is the paper guide in the vertical position?
Are the holes on each side of
the paper aligned with regard
to each other in the tractor
units?
Arethetractorunits too close
or too far apart?
Are the ~actor units locked
in position and the covers
closed?
132
Possible remedy
Makesuretherelease lever ispushcdto the ~ position.
When using the tractor feed, the paper guide should be
horizontal.
If thetwosides of thepaperareoutof alignment, realign
them so that the tractor holes match up.
Misalignment of the tractor units, making the paper too
close or too tight, will prevent a smooth paper feed.
Correct this if necessary.
Check
Is the paper feeding freely
into the printer?
Is thepapercaughtup wound
the perforation?
Are you trying to feed paper
using the fiontpanel buttons
while the ON LINEindicator
illuminated?
Is the paper too thick?
Possible remedy
The paper should not be too fw from the printer (less
than 1 meter/3 feet), and there should be no cables or
other obstacles obstructing its path. The paper should
also be feeding straight into the printer, and an angled
feed may cause jams and blockages.
It isrecommended to skip around the perforation. If you
cannoL set on the CR-CENTERING with Memory
seitch.
You can only feed paper in this way the printer is effline. Set the printer off-line and then feed paper.
J
There are limits to the thickness of paper that can be fed
in this way. Try with thinner paper.
If the ASF is not operatingor is not feeding paper correctly, check the
following:
Check ‘“
Haa the cormxt ASF option
been selected with the
Memory Switch?
Is the release lever set to the
~ position?
Is the ASF correctly
mounted?
Is paper caught up near the
print head? ~
Are theleft and right guides
too clo.ie together?
Is there too much paper in the
paper feed hopper or stacker?
Was the paper fanned before
being fed into the ASF?
Has the paper bear used already or is it creased?
Are you trying to feed paper
using the llont panel buttons
while the ON LINEindicator
illuminated?
Is thepapertoothick or too
thin?
Possible remedy
Select correct option.
The release lever should be set to the single-sheet
position.
Make sure that the ASF improperlyseated on the printer.
Stop printing, remove the jammed sheet (you may have
to rcmove the ASF for this), and continue.
If the left and right guides are too close together, the
paper will not feed smoothly. Move them a little further
armrt to allow the Dauerto feed freelv.
The ASF’S paper feed hopper and stacker can hold
between 100to 150 sheets each. Make sure that there is
no more paper than this in either the hopper or stacker.
If this is not done, paper jams may occur. Remove the
stack of paper from the ASF and fan it before
reinserting.
Only new, uncreased paper should be used with the
ASF.
You can only feed paper in this way the printer is effline. Set the printer off-line and then feed paper.
There arc limits to the thickness of paper that can be fed
in this way. Try with different paper.
I
If the paperpatk facilitydoesnot appearto be workingCQrmctly,
checkthe
following:
Check
Is the paperrelease lever in
the ~ position?
Has the fanfold paper been
PP=lY P~~?
Possible remedy
The paperrelease lever must be set to the ~ position
aftezthe fanfoldpaperhas been parked.
Make surethatthe PAPER
indicatorcomes on afterthe
fanfoldpaperhas been pinked.
If text is being printedall on one line, or with extrablanklines, check the
following:
Check
Is the text all on the same
tie?
Is textbeing printedwithextrablank hfX?
Possible remedy
Carriagereturnsare not being expandedto <lb +
~F> pairs. Check the Memory Switch setting and
correct.

Keep yourprinterin a “comfortable”environment.Roughlyspeaking,if
youm comfortable,thentheenvironmentis suitableforyourprinter(see
Chapter2).
Do not subjectthe printerto physicalshocksor excessivevibration.
Avoid over-dusty environments.Dust is the enemy of all p~cision
mechanicaldevices.
