Chapter 2 CONTROL PANEL OPERATIONS 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.
On Line switch The On Line switch sets the printer on-line and off-line. The state changes each time you press the switch. In the on-line state the printer receives data from the computer and prints the data. In the off-line state the printer stops printing and sends the computer a signal indicating that it cannot accept data.
Quiet Mode switch This switch operates off-line to select the printing mode. The printer powers up in normal printing mode. To select the quiet mode, press the On Line switch to go off-line, then press the Quiet Mode switch. The printer will make two passes for each line, resulting in reduced sound (and slower printing).
The selections cycle in the following order when using the Quiet Mode switch: Pica (10 characters per inch) Elite (12 characters per inch) Semi-condensed (15 characters per inch) Condensed pica (17 ch.
Stay in pane/ pitch: Style/Pitch and Paper Feed switch By holding these switches down during power-up, you can prevent software interference with the print pitch selected from the control panel.
If your system passes the codes directly to the printer without changing them, you will get a printout like Figure 2-3. 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 OA 08 OC OD OE OF 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 1A.

Page feed: Paper Feed and On Line switches If you are using single sheets, this operation ejects the current page. If you are using fanfold forms, it feeds to the top of the next page. 1. Press the On Line switch to set the printer off-line. 2. Press the Paper Feed switch and hold it down.
C/earing the buffer: On Line and Style/Pitch switches When DIP switch 2-l is ON, the printer stores received data in a large memory buffer. This creates a problem when you want to abandon a printing j.
MEMO.
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.
Selecting (or describing) a printer is the main step in the installation process and frequently the only step necessary. If you selected this printer or any Star, Epson or IBM printer you should be ab.
Initialization sequence One of the installation options may be to specify the commands your software sends at the beginning of each printing job. These commands are called the “initialization sequence” or “setup string.
Type style and pitch selection If your software does not control the type style and pitch, you must make these selections on the control panel. The default selections depend on the settings of DIP switches 2-5 to 2-8. If you want a different style or pitch, proceed as follows: 1.
1 Most printer commands consist of the escape code followed by one or more letters or numbers. Some examples are: <ESC>Wl Double-width characters <ESC>WO Normal width <ESC>4 Italic <ESC>5 Upright Two lines with these commands embedded are shown below, together with the printed result.
MEMO.
C hapter 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 or print pitch 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 file.

Chapter 5 MAIAITEIVAIVCE AND 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. This is covered in greater detail in Chapter 1, but in general an environment comfortable for humans is best for both the computer and the printer.
Figure 5-1. Replacing the ribbon cartridge 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.
- 7. Place the new print head on its support, seating it on the two pins. 8. Thread the new cable the same way as the old, securing it under the tabs on the print head carriage. 9. Plug the cable into the connector, inserting it as far as it will go, Connector screws Prmt head Figure 5-2.
REPLACING THE BATTERY IN THE RAM CARD The optional RAM card has an internal battery that backs up the stored data even when the card is removed from the printer. This battery can be used for more than four years. To avoid losing data from the RAM card, you should replace the battery before the end of its service life.
TROUBLESHOOTING n 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.
