They meet the highest possible technical standards, and with proper use, they should provide many years of trouble-free operation. High-performance print qualities as well as operation with fanfold paper and cut sheets from front can be chosen. The following print qualities are available: High Speed Draft Print Quality (HSQ) Copy Draft Print Quality (DPQ Copy) Draft Print Quality (DPQ) Near Letter Quality (NLQ) Letter Quality (LQ) For details see chapter Specifictions. The electronic part controlled by a microcomputer operates the needle printhead, menu programming, and interface. All elements of the printer control are arranged on printed circuit boards so that only a few additional components are required such as step motor for function select, step motor for color option, step motor for paper feed, DC motor for carriage feed, step motor for automatic gap adjust The following options and features will further enhance the printer’s capabilities: 3rd tractor from rear push tractor front front cut sheet insertion automatic gap adjustment sheet feeder with two paper bins face down module for cut sheet feeder fonts automatic gap adjustment multi-color ribbon 2nd push tractor front (feature) (standard) (standard) (standard) (option) (option) (option) (standard) (feature) (option) The manufacturer recommends the use of original accessories.

The binding edge should be as soft as possible. A wavy binding edge may hamper the smooth feeding of these sets. Multi-part forms have to be inserted with the glued top facing down. Multi-part forms should be tested for suitability. Paper quality Light pulp paper of medium fine quality, paper bearing the quality mark SM Post and photocopy paper are suitable for use. Unsuitable are: satin-finish or coated papers, imitation art papers, and embossed papers. Since paper as natural material reacts strongly to environmental influences (e.g. humidity, temperature), the place of storage should be selected carefully. We recommend that this kind of paper should be tested extensively before larger quantities are acquired. Should papers with a dark reverse side be used, these should also be tested for their functionality. Please pay attention to the use of infrared reflecting colors, when acquiring these papers. 2-7 42±5 paperway in tractor 2 (front, top optional) 426 (out max) 62±5 420 (out 1) 60 128 94 110 432 389 377 paperway in tractor 1 (main) side 376 paperway out all tractors line dimensioning centre of foot paper deflection bow paper guide bracket (tractor 3) 406 (3 in) rear all dimensions in mm T2155/T2265, T2170/T2280 Outline Drawing 3.5 30 45 42±5 49±5 36.5 paperway in tractor 3 (rear) 183 2-8 280 30 1:5 623 420 (1 in) 406 (2 in) front 430 522.5 buttom 509 Printer Dimensions Specifications 2.4 Printer Dimensions 189 Functional Description 3 General Functional Description 3.1 General 3.1.1 Printhead The printhead is rated to more than 300.000 standard pages. The printer is economical too: 12.000 standard letters are printed with one ribbon. With our own word-wide patented 24 needle technology the printer also in speed reaches the top region of its class, with its noise level being in the lower range. The printer practically operates in conjunction with all known computer systems and standard software. 3.1.2 Power Supply 3.1.3 Ribbon The power supply may be switched by the user externally from 120 V to 230 V. A fuse (T4,00AH250V, UL) is provided to protect the power supply from hazardous damages. It can be replaced without opening the printer. The quality of the printout is dependent on the quality of the ribbon. Therefore the ribbon as well as the printhead are very important parts of your printer. A used ribbon cannot deliver a satisfactory printout. To achive a long life duration for the ribbon always use it in its full width. This will be achived by moving the ribbon up and down during printing and rotating the ribbon in the infinite end ribbon cassette. The ribbon is therefore satisfactory used and reaches a long life time. With a color printer you must decide if a color ribbon for a color printout or a monochrome ribbon for a one color printout is to be used. In the first case the color ribbon, which can have up to four tracks, is vertically moved in four steps in relation to the printhead, depending on the selected color. If you want to achive a monochrome printout with a color printer, you should use a monochrom ribbon and set the parameter “black” in the Setup menu “Color Opt.”. The firmware moves the color ribbon, simular to a standard printer, in four vertical levels. Because of this electrical control the monochrom ribbon is optimally used by a color printer. Mono ribbon 4 color ribbon black track 4 yellow black track 3 magenta black track 2 cyan black track 1 black 3-1 General 3.1.4 Data Transfer Functional Description The main difference between the serial and parallel interface is the form in which the data bytes are transfered. The serial interface transfers bits in a row, one after the other. Theoretically you only need three connections for this form of data transfer. In the parallel interface the data transfer of the 8 bits (1 byte) is completed simultaneously through 8 parallel connections. At least 11 connections between the computer and the printer are necessary for this procedure. With the parallel Centronics interface data up to 100.000 bytes /seconds theoretically can be transfered. Actual the printer opperates with a maximum transfer frequency of approx. 30.000 bytes/second. This “Data Flow”, depending on the adjustment of the input buffer (0-128 KB) on your printer, can be temporarily stored. 3.1.5 Monitoring The most important functions are monitored with sensors, microswitches and electrical monitoring circuits. These are constantly checked, processed by an internal logic and indicated on the display. To prevent an overheating of the printhead, 12 coils of the 24 electromagnets are monitored. If the temperature reaches a value above 130 °C the speed of the printer is automatically slowed down. As soon as the printhead has cooled the printer works with high speed again. If a coil becomes defective, this is recognized by the firmware and shown on the display (Head defect, THS Error, Head Hot permanently). For safety reasons the top cover is also monitored. If you should open the top cover during printing operation, then the printout is momentary stopped (to avoid injuries). When you close the cover again the printout is continued without loss of data. 3-2 Functional Description Mechanical Functions 3.2 Mechanical Functions 3.2.1 Head/Platen Clearance The worm gear (see principle drawing) determine the basic head distance. You can imagine the worm gear as a mechanical memory. During initialisation (power up) of the printer the head distance stepper moves the toothed segment on block at the worm gear. Now the printer has its basic point and can count the steps forward which are stored in the firmware. The stepper tolerance is within one bit pattern (equals 4 steps).

To avoid unexpected switching, you have to use a tool, like tweezers, to switch over. The power supply conists of discrete and integrated circuits, transformers and other elements. It is primary switched and therefore a small built power supply. The value of the fuse is T4,00AH250V Slow Blow. Please note that a UL listed fuse must be used. 3-18 Functional Description How to test the printer’s function without Mains Input Electronic Functions There is the possibility to run a test procedure without line voltage. To perform this run following steps: – – – – Disconnect printer from outlet and switch printer off Give DC Voltage (33 V) to jumpers connector x4 on the main board. If you supply the logic with 1 A DC you are able to handle the panel, the motors and the printhead (only moves) If you supply the logic with 3 A DC you are able to make self test printout (e.g. ASCII tree; no graphic printing please), also. Described steps have to be carried out very carefully. STOP 3.3.1.2 Driver Section This part is mainly claimed of the PPU 96 ASIC 47537. This highly integrated circuit serves both to activate further actuators as well as to recognise and pick up sensors or status signals. This means that this IC sonsists mainly of registers, latches and selective logic. Also the motor drivers and the needle drivers are controlled by PPU 96. 3.3.1.3 Needle Driver The needle driver signals (NOxx) are connected to the printhead via plug X14/X2 of the connection board to the printhead adapter board.

Overview This SIDM printer is equipped with a parallel Centronics interface which is located on the main electronic pcb. The data transfer handshake (with some smaller exceptions) has been implemented according IEEE1284 standard. Up to now (13.12.95) only the Nibble Mode was implemented (Bytemode, ECP-Mode and EEP mode may follow later per request). The Nibble Mode has been adapted to meet the requirements Microsoft Windows (TM) Operating System which does a printer identification using “Plug’n’Play”. A graphical schematic is shown in the IEEE1284 standard picture 3, page 25 and picture 9, page 35. 2 Detailed description of data transfer in Nibble Mode The transmission of printer identification is divided into two parts. In the first phase there is a “negotiation” between PC and printer to activate Nibble Mode. In the second phase there is a data transfer. At the end of each phase there is a reentry to to the normal Centronics mode according a defined handshake procedure. The name “Nibble Mode” in this case means that the transmission is performed in two packages per 4 bit in direction to the PC using existing control lines (bit 0/4=Error, Bit 1/5=Select, Bit 2/6=Paper-End, Bit 3/7=Busy). All other possible modes are using the 8 standard data lines - now in the opposite direction (printer - PC) 2.1 Phase 1, Negotiation phase Procedure – – – – – – – – – – – – – 3-22 The PC sets SELECTIN to high and at the same time AUTOFEED to low. The printer reacts within 35ms with SELECT, ERROR and PAPEREND to high but DONE to low PC transmits one data byte to the printer with a STROBE signal and sets AUTOFEED to high This byte will be analyzed by the printer. If all seems to be ok this byte should be 00hex witch means the PC likes to know whether or not the printer is supporting Nibble Mode. Since the printer is able to run Nibble Mode the printer answers then with SELECT, ERROR and PAPEREND to low. To create an interrupt at PC side, DONE will be set to high at the end. Now the termination of the negotiation phase will be done by setting SELECTIN to low. As a result the printer is setting SELECT and BUSY to high and after a short delay also SELECTIN to low. As a reaction AUTOFEED is set to low at PC side. The printer is now setting ERROR and SELECT in normal Centronics mode according the actual state and after that DONE is changed back again to high. PC should react then setting AUTOFEED signal to high As the very end of this negotiation phase the printer sets BUSY and DONE in normal Centronics mode according the actual state. Now everything is in normal state. Functional Description Electronic Functions 2.2 Phase 2, Data transmission phase This phase is activated even after phase 1. A string of characters is transferred from the printer to the PC, which immediately describes the printer type, the manufacturer, the device class and some sort of compatibility.

PC transmits one Byte with a STROBE pulse and sets AUTOFEED to high This byte will be analyzed by the printer. If everything was ok the byte should be 04hex which means that PC is demanding the identification of the printer in Nibble Mode. The printer agrees setting PAPEREND to low and DONE to high. PC answers setting AUTOFEED to low. Now the initial procedure starts by sending the characters. The string is built up in a way that the first two bytes are indicating the total length of the string (including the first two counter bytes). MSB first then LSB is transmitted followed by the characters. Each byte starts by putting bits 0 - 3 to the control signals (see above). This Nibble (half - byte) is released setting DONE to low. The acknowledge of PC is done by setting AUTOFEED to high. As soon the printer recognizes the acknowledge DONE is put back to high. As a result the PC sets AUTOFEED back to low. Now bits 4 - 7 are sent using the signal lines. This Nibble (half - byte) is released setting DONE to low. The acknowledge of PC is done once more by setting AUTOFEED to high. As long as there are data to be transmitted the printer sets now PAPEREND, ERROR, SELECT and BUSY to low and DONE once more to high. The acknowledge of the PC is performed by setting AUTOFEED to low. Now the next nibble can be sent and the procedure is repeated. If there are no more data to be transferred after the last Nibble (half - byte) the printer is setting ERROR to high, SELECT, PAPEREND and BUSY to low. This will be release setting DONE to high. Now the termination of the data transmission phase is starting. The PC sets SELECTIN signal to low. The printer reacts – different than in the negotiation phase - with SELECT set to low, BUSY set to high and - after a short delay - DONE set to low. The printer is setting ERROR and SELECT according to the actual status in normal Centronics mode and after that DONE back to high. PC reacts setting AUTOFEED to high. At the very end of the data transmission phase the printer sets BUSY and DONE according to the actual state in normal Centronics mode. Now everything is in normal state again and the transmission of the printer identification is completed. 1 – – 3-23 Electronic Functions 3.3.3.1 Interface Board Option/Modular Functional Description There are several I/O Boards available as option.

As an option, the plug-in interfaces of other pay be used. E.g. if someone wants to use an (optional) RS232 (V24) I/O he has to use the combined MT3x0 serial/parallel I/O. Since this I/O also has an on-board Centronics type interface the built in interface must be switched off. (Please consider that there are interfaces without a parallel interface; i.e. TTY, RS422. Using this kind of interfaces will not switch off the bi-directional I/O.) If an additional parallel I/O is added, it is mandatory to disable the internal CX I/O on the main board, so that only the plugged-in parallel I/O’s will be active. Otherwise the printer will misread data on the parallel data lines. A shared serial/parallel (RS232(CX) I/O is possible, but two parallel I/O’s are not allowed. To avoid this the CPU of this printer is monitoring a signal at the connector for external I/O’s to determine the presence of an additional to the standard parallel I/O on the main board. The signal’s name is PT0, it can be found at Pin 15 A of the external I/O connector. Please refer to the following table to determine the function of PT0: PTO in Volts Meaning < 1.8 Volt the internal parallel (CX) I/O will be used > 1.8 Volt … 2.5 … < 3.0 Volt the external parallel I/O will be used* > 4.5 Volt the internal parallel (CX) I/O will be used * Please consider that the external parallel interface may not support IEEE1284 (plug’n’play). Possible modification of existing and future external I/O’s with own parallel interface: VCC 4k7 pull up PT0 4k7 pull down GND 3-25 Electronic Functions 3.3.3.2 Shared Interface Functional Description Your printer can be configured in such a way, so that it uses only one interface or both alternatively. If only one interface is used, this is only monitored by the printer. If the printer is configured in such a way that both interfaces are used simultaneously, it alternately accesses the interfaces to see whether there are any incoming data. If the printer recognises a signal, it switches to the corresponding interface and sends the “ACTIVE” signal to the other one. After data transmission has been completed, the printer remains assigned to the interface for as certain period of time (hold time: 30 s). After this period has elapsed, the printer clears the buffer and the procedure begins anew. If after this the current position is not at Top of Form a Form Feed will be carried out. CX The parallel section is controlled by the main logic, only I/O Drivers (7407, 74244) are necessary. Please see also section 3.3.3.1 “General Information”. RS232C / V 24 The serial part is controlled by the main logic only I/O Drivers (L 232 50P) are necessary. They convert 5 V Input signals to RS232 Standard voltage (-12/+12 V). Several jumpers are prepared to customize the interface.

The temperature will change almost linear to the measured coil resistance. The resistance is measured continuously. Therefore it is possible to monitor the printhead for highest performance but to protect it in case of overheating. This control system must be adjusted once in case of changing printhead or at changing main electronic (see chapter 6.3.1). Used formula: Rϑ = Rt2 ∗ (1 + α ∗ ∆ϑ) ϑ = Temperature R = Resistance 1 α = 3,95 ∗ 10-3 K ∆ϑ = Difference of Temperature (t1 - t2) t1 = calculated temperature t2 = adjust temperature Example: The printhead was adjusted by 20°C (t2). The measured resistance was 5 Ω (Rt2). We want calculate the temperature (t1) at 7 Ω (Rϑ). ( ∆ϑ = Rϑ )–1 Rt2 α ≈ 102°C t1 = 102°C + 20°C ≈ 122°C 3-43 Loading Firmware (principle) 3.4 Loading Firmware (principle) Functional Description In the very first beginning a Firmware is released by development. After that the Alpha test will check the firmware in a Flash controller. Since Eprom controller are not supported only the Flash version will be checked and released by Alpha test department. Afterwards the firmware will be distributed via Competence Center in form of a FLASH File (for flash memory) and mostly as a BINARY file (for eprom). A never initialized FlashMemory has to be burned once then the Bootstrap-Loader is resident in the memory. From then on the Memory is ready to being flashed. (Character set) needs not to be initialized first since the bootstrap loader remains in the firmware socket).

You can do this using the MenLock parameter from within the menu itself. (The MenLock parameter is described in detail in the menu description table of the Operators Manual). You can access a locked menu by switching on the printer while simultaneously pressing the SETUP button 4.1.1 ASCII Tree With the ASCII tree test you can test whether your printer is functioning properly (independently from your computer). You can select either 80 or 136 characters per line. For example, you can interrupt the test if you want to change the line density by pressing the On line button. To exit the ASCII test, the printer must be turned off. Example for an ASCII test printout 4.1.2 Interfacetest (Hex-Dump) With the interface test (hex-dump) you can check data transfer from computer to printer. The text which is being transmitted to the printer is printed in two parts. In the left part the text is printed in hexadecimal format, and in the right in ASCII format. Example for a hex-dump test printout 4-2 Testmodes and Troubleshooting 4.2 Troubleshooting 4.2.1 Error Messages in the LCD Display Troubleshooting Many errors and problems that occur during printer operation have a simple cause and can be easily solved. So if you have a few problems with your printer, you do not need to phone the manufacturer right away. The following chapter will help you to differentiate between real printer defects and simple operating errors. The table on the following page lists all errors reported by the printer via the LCD display. Error message Cause Removing the error Cover Open Upper cover is open. Close upper cover. Hall sensor defective or cables at interconnection board disconnected Eject Error The printer cannot eject the paper/ the printer cannot transport the paper to park position. Check: whether the paper path is blocked by an object. whether the paper is damaged. whether the printer bar cover is locked into position properly. whether the printhead distance is too small (increase clearance by pressing Head key). Frame Error Transmission error of the serial interface. Compare the format-adjustment of your printer with the adjustment of your computer. Check the allowed cable length. See parity error. Hardware Alarm Internal hardware error/printhead blocked, AGA defect Check whether the printhead is blocked by an object, e.g. by jammed paper or if the printhead distance is too small. Try and remove the error by turning the printer off and then on again. If this does not help, contact your dealer. (If the printer reports the message “Hardware Alarm” after optional extras or accessories have been installed, please check whether the installation was carried out correctly, e.g. sheetfeeder gear block). Incremental stripe positiones in horizontal light barrier beneath the carriage. 4-3 Troubleshooting Testmodes and Troubleshooting Error message Cause Removing the error Load error The printer cannot draw in the loaded paper. Check: whether the paper path is blocked by an object. whether the paper is damaged. whether the tractors were properly closed and locked into position. whether the paper is subjected to sufficient/insufficient tension. Motor Defect Internal hardware error Overrun Error Received data which have not yet been printed is overwritten from new data. Try and remove the error by turning the printer off and then on again. Load the default settings. If this does not help, contact your distributor. Check: if the correct replay signal (e.g. X-ON/X-OFF) is set in the menu. the interface cable Check the handshake (DTR / Ready / Buffer Mode / Block Mode) is DTR=Ready switched on ? Paper out The printer has either detected paper end during operation or the printer was turned on with no paper loaded. Paper with black rear side is used Load paper. Cut sheet not fully inserted. The loaded paper was inserted too far right of the mark and cannot be detected by the paper end sensor. Guide the paper with the white margin over the light barrier if using black sided salary forms etc. Use the pap,dark feature in the test menue Parity Error A parity error during data transfer via the serial interface has occurred. Examine the transfer protocols of the printer and the computer and make sure they are the same. Check whether the cable length and insulation of the interface cable corresponds to the specifications. To clear the error message, you must switch of your printer. Power Fail 4-4 Internal software error Try and remove the error by turning the printer off and then on again. Load the default setting. If this does not help, contact your distributor (If the printer reports the message “Program Error” after optional extras or accessories have been installed, please check whether the installation was carried out correctly). Testmodes and Troubleshooting Error message Troubleshooting Cause Removing the error Check if new options are built in previously. Wrong Board Wrong logic board Remove logic board or Assy. Replace it with correct one. Wrong Head Wrong Head mounted Remove head. Replace it with correct head. Motor hot Motor overload Let printer cool down. THS Error T2170, T2280 Printhead defective or Logic defective Please check 1. printhead cable 2. cable contacts 3. replug head into adapter Use the: Show function to analyse the head temperature Print function in service menue to check the coils Do not forget to adjust the printhead after substituting head and/or main logic. Also adjust printhead only in cold state! If you’re manipulating the printhead (i.e. plug / unplug the head to solve a contact problem) run the adjustment procedure to asure proper function of the sytem. Each adjustment the new coil values are stored on the main board. Check Ribbon Ribbon drive: carriage moves too tight The printer checks after 3850 printed lines if the ribbon drive blocks. In case of error the printer will switch to hardware alarm and shows “Check Ribbon” in the display Substitute ribbon Check tightness of CR system 4-5 Troubleshooting 4.2.2 Further Messages in the LCD Display Testmodes and Troubleshooting The messages in the table below are not error messages, but operating steps to be mentioned. Message Meaning Head Hot The printhead is hot. The printer reports that the temperature of the printhead is becoming too high and that print speed is being reduced for this reason. Head Hot (permanently displayed) Try to adjust head temperature (T2170 only, see section 6.3.1) Check printhead; if damaged please replace printhead (see section 5.2) Replace printhead cables Replace main board 4-6 Insert Paper Top or Front Paper is not available in selected paper way. Data is in interface receive buffer. Loading Default Printer is loading default (factory) configuration. It is possible to do this manually by pressing the four function and selection buttons when turning on the printer (see also Reference Manual on CD-ROM). Default anyway is loaded after installing different or new firmware. Only Available in EPSON Mode Functions which are not meaningfull in this emulation have been selected. To use the selected feature you have to switch over the emulation to Epson. Open Front Flap If you have choosen “the single sheet feed” then you must open the front flap. Park Position You are informed when the fanfold paper is in park position. Please Wait Your printer is occupied with internal proceedings. Press any Key You are requested to press any key. Remove Paper in xxx The paper way is changed (xxx indicates the paper way). Remove the remaining paper in the printer manually. Tear Paper Off Note for the operator to tear off the paper positioned on the tear off edge before. Adjust Tear or Adjust Cut Use this keys ↑ ↓ or ,,>“, ,,<“ to adjust the paper at tear position (valid also for Cut feature). Testmodes and Troubleshooting 4.2.3 Printer Malfunctions without any Message at the LCD Display Troubleshooting This table deals with possible errors not reported in the LCD display. Problem Printer has been switched on but nothing happens. The LCD display remains blank. Possible causes Check whether the power cord is properly connected to the wall outlet and the printer. Check wether there is mains voltage at the outlet. Check the fuse of your power supply. The power cable may be damaged. Try out another power cable. Test outlet with an other load (i.e. lamp) Check power selection lever Printer does not print from your application/computer. The printer is not in Online Mode. Check whether the interface cable is properly connected. Interface plugged in correctly (close grey and green interface lever) The interface cable has been damaged. Try using another interface cable. The interface configuration in your application program is incorrect. Set CX-BID to OFF (in test menue) Try modulare MT350/360/380 Shared Interface Problem with the paper feed Check if the light emitting diode (LED) displays the correct sheet feeder, if necessary select the correct sheet feeder (single or tractor) with the “Paper” key. Make sure that the paper guides at the sides is properly set. Check the paper guides. Check printhead gap and butterfly (transparent paper guide at the carriage). Push the paper into the paper feed slot until it is properly seated. When switching from fanfold to single page feed, the remaining paper is automatically diverted to park position. Check if the remaining paper is in park position when you insert a single sheet. That means the fanfold paper should not be loaded (pulled in). If necessary drive the remaining paper manually with the arrow key ↓ to the park position. 4-7 Troubleshooting Testmodes and Troubleshooting Problem Possible causes Paper Jam (Fanfold Paper) Open upper flap. Switch printer off. Close upper flap. Remove the jammed paper by tearing it off on the tearing edge and then open the tractors and pull out the paper in your direction (to the front). Pay attention to the following points: Do not tilt paper, insert it straight (parallel) and smoothly. Close the tractor flaps. Substitute tractor assy. Stretch the paper slightly. Activate PAPHAND feature. Paper Jam (Single Sheet Paper) Try to remove paper using keys LF/FF or EJECT (if available). Open the top flap (printhead is moved to the most backward position to free the paper way). Always remove the paper to the top. Pay attention to the following points: Adjust the paper guides of the ASF on the right and left side; allow approx. 5 mm space to the paper. Separate the single sheets manually previous of stacking them in tray. Place the paper straight in the feed slot and make sure it is seated properly. Match the head distance of the paper thickness (multiple forms etc.). Check AGA option. Tear or Cut position cannot be set Press Setup/Adjust/Cut (or Tear) Paper does not move to cut or tear position It is only possible and significant to cut/tear off fanfold paper. Consider: only fanfold paper can be torn off Check the affected Setup (Auto Tear) in the printer’s menue. The printed image is too light or not all dots are printed. The printhead distance is too large. Decrease printhead distance (AGA: go to minus direction) Check/adjust AGA option (to adjust AGA switch printer on without paper loaded). The ribbon cassette is worn out. Use a very new ribbon (lifetime > 15 mio characters draft). The ribbon cassette is not locked into position properly. Install ribbon correctly. Printhead is worn out (please see the specification for your printhead). The printhead is damaged. 4-8 Testmodes and Troubleshooting Problem The printed image is too dark or smudged Troubleshooting Possible causes The printhead distance is too small. Increase printhead distance (AGA: go to plus direction). Check/adjust AGA option. Install ribbon correctly (correct fitting). Check the thickness of the used paper (inhomogeneous?). Use built in characters rather than TrueType. Decrease resolution (eg. 180x180). The printhead stops during the printout accidentally. The printhead distance is too small. Increase printhead distance. Check/adjust AGA option (s.a.). The printhead is blocked possibly by another object. The ribbon cassette is not locked into position correctly. Install ribbon correctly. Ribbon is damaged so that printhead needles hook into. CR-motor is defective or fails sporadically. Use the newest firmware level. Prints undefined characters Check if the interface plug is correctly fitted to the computer and to the printer. Check that the proper emulation and the right country is set in the setup menu. Check the interface parameters. Check wether an external box is used. Only the lower half of the characters fit on paper if printing on the very first printable line (TOF) Check the setting ,,Phys.adjustment“ within testmode. General problems with the printout/print quality Check if the ribbon is damaged. Check the setting ,,Form Adjust“ (=Vertical Alignment) Set the correct printhead distance (AGA). Check if the platen is damaged. Contact your distributor. The printhead is damaged (printhead needles bend or worn out?).

By moving the printhead the function of the horizontal timing belt can be tested (value of Actual Position is changing). The value of the head clearance is always a desired position since there is no response of actual head clearance. Default standard = 18; AGA = rel. position; max. value = 131 (i.e. after Initializing resp. power on).
