Changing the Emulation

Before you can use the EpsonScript option, you need to change the emulation by using the SelecType menus.

If you’re using the LocalTalk interface, the emulation may automatically be set for PostScript compatibility. However, it is

agood idea to check this setting before you begin printing. To manually change your printer’s emulation:

1.Press the Menu button. This takes the printer off line and displays the PRINTING MENU, which is the first menu of the series.

2.Press the Menu button until EMULATION MENU appears in the display.

3.Press the Item button until the interface you want to use is displayed.

You can choose the parallel, serial, LocalTalk (L/T), or any auxiliary interface.

4.Press the up arrow to select one of the following modes: PS, PS&LJ4, PS&FX, PS&ESCP2, PS&GL2.

5.Press the Enter button to add the value to printer memory.

6.Press the On Line button to put the printer back on line.

If you see the message RESET TO SAVE, press Reset while you hold down the Alt button.

PostScript emulation is now assigned to the interface or interfaces you selected in step 3. It stays selected until you change the emulation for the interface.
