Problems and Solutions

Most problems you may encounter while operating your printer

have simple solutions.

You can check the operation of your printer using the self test. See

“Printing a Self Test”. If the self test works properly the problem

probably lies in the computer, the application software, or the

interface cable. If the self test does not work, contact your dealer

or a qualified service person for assistance.

Note:

If you are an experienced user or a programmer, you can print a

hexadecimal dump to isolate communication problems between the

printer and computer. To print a hex dump, turn off the printer. Next,

hold down the Load/Eject and LF/FF buttons while you turn on the

printer. Then send data from your computer. The printer prints all the

codes it receives in hexadecimal format.
