Printing

ProblemSolution

The printing position is incorrect (continued).

All the text is printed on the same line.

The printer inserts extra blank lines between lines of text.

The page length does not match the length

of the paper.

In BASIC, enter one of the following statements:

WIDTH LPRINT 255

LDTH “LPTl:“, 255

If the printer still does not print properly, set the right margin to the maximum setting using ESC Q.

A line feed signal is not being sent at the end of each line. Turn on DIP switch 2-4 so that the printer adds a line feed code to each carriage return sent by the application program. See page 3-15.

Extra line feed signals are being sent. Turn off DIP switch 2-4. See page 3-15.

The page length may be set incorrectly. Check your application program’s page length setting and change it if necessary. You can also turn off DIP switch 3-2 to set the page length to 11 inches (279.4 mm) or turn on the switch to set the page length to

12inches (304.8 mm). See page 3-17.If your application program can send control codes to the printer, you can set the page size using ESC C or ESC C 0.
