Figure 1-f. Check to make sure you have all five items: 1) Printer, 2) Paper guide, 3) Platen knob, 4) Ribbon cartridge, and 5) User’s manual. Make an external inspection of the printer. Note the locations of the following parts: Bail lever: opens and closes the paper bail which holds the paper against the platen.
Bail lever Poa Release lever: releases the platen. This lever must be down for printing on single sheets, and up for fanfold forms. Top cover: protects the print head and other parts. Rear cover: protects the sprocket feed mechanism. Entry slot: for inserting single sheets of paper.
Remove the top cower Lift the front edge of the printer’s clear plastic top cover. Then disengage the tabs at the back of the cover and remove the cover completely.
hstall the ribbon cartridge The top side of the ribbon cartridge has a handle for turning the ribbon. Turn this handle in the direction of the arrow to tighten the ribbon. Next place the ribbon cartridge on the print head assembly, guiding the ribbon between the print head and the metal platen guard.

lever Manual loading It is also possible to load paper manually while the printer’s power is off. The procedure is: 1. Check that printer power is off and the release lever at the back of the printer is down. 2. Insert a single sheet of paper into the entry slot as far as it will go, the same way as for semiautomatic loading.
LOADING AND PARKING FANFOLD FORMS Fanfold forms have holes along the sides and perforations between the sheets. They are also called sprocket forms, punched forms, or just plain “computer paper”. This printer accepts forms up to 10” wide. Fanfold forms are loaded, parked, and unparked as explained next.

Switch l-l: Is the page length of your paper 11 inches or 12 inches? Leave this switch ON if you will be using 11-inch forms. Move it to the OFF position if you will be using 12-inch forms. Switch 1-2: Do you want an automatic carriage return? Leave this switch ON.
ON selects character set #2, which is for computers with an g-bit interface (the most common kind). OFF selects character set #l, for computers with a 7-bit interface. Switch 1-8: Do you want an automatic line feed? If you leave this switch at the ON position, a separate line-feed code is re- quired to obtain a line feed.

. c Chapter 2 CONTROL PANEL OPERAT/O/VS This chapter explains how to use the control panel to: 0 Pause printing l Feed paper (fast and slow, forward and reverse) l Select the print pitch 0 Select a ty.
The control panel switches can be pressed singly to perform the oper- ations indicated by their names. Other functions can be obtained by holding these switches down when you turn the printer’s power on. Still further functions can be executed by pressing the control panel switches in com- bination.
When you press the On Line switch again to go back on-line, the paper feeds backward about one inch, stopping in the right place to resume printing. Paper Feed switch This switch operates only when the printer is off-line. If you press it once the paper feeds forward by one line.
Samples of these pitches are shown in Figure 2-2. Note that with proportional pitch different letters occupy different widths. (For example, “i” and “1” are narrower than other letters.) Proportional pitch is attractive and space-efficient, though not always convenient when column alignment is required.

Short test pattern: On Line switch If held down during power-up, this switch prints a short test pattern (shown in Chapter 1). Long test pattern: Paper Feed switch If held down during power-up, this switch prints a long test pattern. The test cycles endlessly.
. i i c 3. At the end of the hexadecimal dump, set the printer off-line with the On Line switch. This is necessary to print the last line. The following BASIC program is a simple test you can run in h.
When the IBM-PC BASIC interpreter sends hex code OD (carriage re- turn) it adds an extra hex OA (line feed). Hex code 1A (end-of-file) also gets special treatment: the interpreter does not send it at all. This can cause problems in programs that generate graphics or download character data, but there is a solution.
Paper parking: Print Pitch and Paper Feed switches This procedure feeds the paper backward. It parks the fanfold form at the back of the printer so that you can switch to single-sheet feeding (by moving the release lever to the down position).
Reverse micro-fee& On Line and Print Pitch switches You can also feed the paper in small increments in reverse, to return to a higher position on the same page. Note: With fanfold forms, do not try to return to a previous page. The perforation may catch inside the printer.
1. Halt the printing program on the computer. If printing stops imme- diately, the buffer is clear and the rest of this procedure is unnecessary. If printing does not stop, continue as follows: 2. Press the On Line switch to set the printer off-line. Printing will now stop, but there may be data remaining in the buffer.

Chapter 3 USING THE PRINTER WITH COMMERCIAL SOFTWARE There is an abundance of commercial software available: spreadsheet programs, word-processing programs, graphics programs, and more. This printer will work with any program that supports a Star, Epson or IBM dot-matrix printer.
A few installation programs may ask you not to select a printer but to describe what your printer can do. The answers to the most often asked questions are: Yes, this printer can do a backspace; and Yes, it can do a hardware form feed.
The character pitch can be selected from the control panel before you start printing, or possibly by an initialization sequence as described next. initialization sequence One of the installation options may be to specify the commands your software sends at the beginning of each printing job.
the right position on the page, a short distance below the perforation. With power off, you can align the forms by turning the platen knob. When power is on, use the Paper Feed switch on the control panel.

When you use these commands there are several points to note: l The type style ((F)) and italic ((I)) commands are ignored if the NLQ Type Style switch was held down when power was switched on.
Chapter 4 USING THE PRINTER WITH DOS AND BASIC Although you will probably do most of your printing with the aid of commercial software, at times you will want to employ direct commands or programs of your own.
To switch printer output off, press CTRL-PRTSC or CTRL-P again. Each time you press this key combination, hard copy toggles from on to off or from off to on. PROGRAMMING THE PRINTER WITH DOS COMMANDS If your system includes the file PRINT.COM you can use the main DOS printing command.
If you want a particular type style, print pitch, or right or left margin, you can make these settings from the control panel before you start printing. See Chapter 2. If you print from the DOS command level very often, it will be ad- vantageous to create a printer setup tile.
*I - l:*-V[xl^V[!“VA^V[X^VL 2:*-c - “E - ^V indicates that the following character is a control code. ^V[ enters the < ESC> code. < ESC > has character code 27, and “[” is the 27th character in ASCII sequence from A. Similarly, “VA enters the control code < 1 > and “VL enters the control code < 12 > .
You will note that this program avoids the printer’s double-parenthesis commands. To change colours, for example, it uses the escape sequence E$: “r”; CHR$(n), where E$ is predefined as CHR$(27), instead of the equivalent command ((C))n.

Chapter 5 MAINTENANCE AND TROU5LESHOOTlNG Subjects covered in Chapter 5 include - l Cleaning the printer l Replacing the ribbon l Replacing the print head l Troubleshooting Dust and heat will make any mechanism wear more quickly. The best maintenance is preventive, and the first step is correct location of the printer.
- REPLACING THE PRINT HEAD The dot matrix print head has a life of about 200 million dots, or years of normal use. When printing is too light even after replacing the ribbon, you’ll know that the print head has reached the end of its service life. To replace the print head, follow the procedure below.
6. Disengage the cable from the tabs holding it down, then remove the print head. 7. For easy installation of the new print head, move the carriage toward the left end of the rail. 8. Place the new print head on its support, seating it on the two pins.
TROUBLESHOOTING H If the printer doesn’t print: l Check the Power and On Line indicators. Both must be on. l Check that the interface cable is securely plugged in at the computer and printer ends. l Make a test print. (Turn power OFF, hold the On Line or Paper Feed switch down, then turn power ON.
n If the printed characters don’t match the characters on the screen: l Check DIP switches 2-2 to 2-4. When these switches are not all ON (back), an international character set is selected and some ASCII symbols are changed to other characters. See Appendix D.

Appendix c DOWNLOAD CHARACTER GENERATOR With this printer you can create new characters and symbols, download their dot data, and have them printed in place of selected characters in the regular character set.
The dot matrix for a draft-quality character is 8 cells high and 11 cells wide. Figure C-l shows the matrix with the car symbol filled in. Note that there are no pairs of horizontally adjacent dots. The pins in the print head cannot fire fast enough to print adjacent dots in the horizontal direction.
By moving the cursor and pressing the Fl, F2, and F3 keys you can quickly build up the dot pattern. If necessary you can clear all dots by pressing F4 and start over. When the character is complete, press Return to store the dot data in the computer’s memory.
If you select near letter quality, the character box is the same size but now has 16 (high) x 23 (wide) dot positions. Each dot is represented by two adjacent sharp signs, occupying its own position and the position to the right.
