Be sure to set the [Printer Status Monitoring] as shown in the table below. The status monitor has been

disabled as default. Wrong setting disables proper printing.

Configuration for the Status Monitor

When the [Printer Status Monitoring] is set to other than “Disabled”, it is possible to monitor the printer status

from the host computer. When this feature is not supported or is unnecessary, choose the “Disabled” for the

[Printer Status Monitoring]. Doing so reduces the load on the printer driver and increases the print efficiency.

Notes:

1. When RS-232C (Serial interface) is used for connection, it will take time until printing starts. It is recommended to

use other interfaces as far as possible.
