Oki PAGE 10I manual Print job started with italics, changed to bold, but italics

Problem Solving 4

Symptom:	Print job started with italics, changed to bold, but italics
	still output.
Problem:	Font selection is by priority, and italic is “higher” than
	bold.
Solution:	Turn italics off before turning bold on.
Symptom:	Printer ignores control codes sent prior to printing a
	document.
Problem:	The application software automatically sends a reset
	command before printing.
Solution:	Embed the control codes in the text to be printed.
Symptom:	“Garbage” prints out.
Problem:	Incorrect driver is installed.
Solution:	Install an appropriate driver.
Symptom:	Printer’s output is below rated speed.
Problem:	Delays are caused by software formatting routines,
	graphics downloads, and other application specific
	factors.
Solution:	For maximum speed, output plain text.
Symptom:	Size of top margin increases with each page printed.
Problem:	“Creeping text.” Number of lines per page in software is
	not equal to number of lines per page of printer.
Solution:	Many software packages assume 66 lines per page, but
	your printer’s default is 60. Adjust software accordingly,
	or set LINES/ Pg in Menu 1 to equal lines per page in
	software.

Problem: In Epson FX Emulation, when command for 66 lines is sent to the printer, printer prints only 64 lines on a page, looses the 65 and 66 line and prints 67th line on the second page.

Solution: Set line spacing to 35/216 with a software command ESC “3” Pn (Pn=number of 216ths). Then send the command to set the page length to 66 lines per page, ESC C Pn (Pn = number of lines per page).

Symptom: Strange symbols appear during normal printing.

Problem: Wrong symbol set.

Solution: Make sure the symbol set selected corresponds to symbol set resident, in font card, or in soft font.
