Symptom: Parts of documents are missing at the edges of the printed sheet.

Problem: Software is attempting to print beyond the printer’s maximum image area.

Solution: Adjust software page margins to printer’s maximum margins (8" X 10" for standard sheets).

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).
