10. Troubleshooting
1) IF THE POWER LED DOES NOT COME ON.
Make sure the power supply cables are securely plugged into the printer, the
adapter, and the power outlet. Also, make sure that power is supplied to the
power outlet. If the outlet is controlled by a switch or timer, use another outlet.
1)IF THE POWER LED IS ON BUT PAPER DOES NOT FEED.
This may be a head jam condition, first turn off the printer and make sure there
is no paper stuck in the mechanism; however do not use force or a sharp object
to remove the jammed paper .
2)IF THE PAPER IS NOT FEEDING PROPERLY.
If the printout looks squashed, make sure that the paper roll moves freely on the
paper holder. If the paper is wrinkled on the edges, the roll may not loaded
correctly. In that case remove the paper and reload.
4) IF THE PRINTER SOUNDS LIKE IT IS PRINTING BUT NOTHING IS
13
PRINTED
Make sure a ribbon cartridge is installed properly that is not worn out. Please
note that the ribbon needs to be in front of the paper.
If the printout is faint, turn the knob on the cartridge in the direction of the arrow.
Also, see if the knob turns when the FEED button is pushed, if it does not, then
the advance gear on the ribbon or the mechanism may be defective or worn out.
3)IF THE PRINTER DOES NOT COMMUNICATE WITH THE HOST.
Run the self test to check that the printer works properly. If the self test does not
work contact your dealer or qualified service person. If the self test works
properly, check the following:
A. You are using the right interface cable.
B. The connection on both ends of the cable between the printer and
the host.
C. The data transmission setting may be different between the printer
and the host. Use the SET-UP instructions to change the settings, if
necessary.
4)IF A LINE OF DOTS IS MISSING IN THE PRINTOUT.
The print head may be damaged. Contact your dealer or qualified service
person.
11. Interface connections
The OM19 printer is available in RS-232C serial and Centronics compatible
parallel versions. The interface type is printed on the self-test printout. The

11.2 COMMAND DESCRIPTIONS
11.2.1 COMMAND DESCRIPTION FOR DH1000 EM ULATION
TAB(09H) : Moves the print position to the nest horizontal tab position. The default tab positions
are at every 8 character intervals. This command will be ignored unless the nest horizontal tab
position is set.
LINE FEED(0AH) : Prints the data in the print buffer and feeds one line based on the current
line spacing . IF LF+CR IS SENT, CR WILL BE IGNORED TO AVOID DOUBLE FEEDING.
FORM FEED(0BH) : The printer fast feeds to the top of form set by software. Any character in
the buffer will be printed and the buffer pointer will be reset.
VERTICAL TAB(0CH,N) : Printer feeds the paper by N lines. N is a single byte hex number in
the 0<n<20h range. Note that a vertical tab will print the contents of the line buffer before being
executed.
17
CR(0DH) : This command prints the data in the print buffer and feeds one line. If a LF is sent
immediately after CR, it will be ignored to avoid double printing. When the line buffer is full, ie
upon receiving the 24
th
and 40thcharacters in the case of OM190 and OM192, respectively, the
printer will automatically print the data in the buffer. If CR or LF is sent, they will be ignored in
this situation.
DOUBLE WIDTH(0EH) : Upon receiving this command the printer will go in the double wide
mode and remains in this mode until terminated by the single wide command or completion of
the current line. If the last character of a line is double wide but there is room only for a single
wide character, it will be printed in single width.
SINGLE WIDTH(0FH) : Printer reverts back to single width printing. Single and double wide
characters can be combined anywhere on a line.
RESET(11H) : This commands causes the printer to be set to power up default conditions.
NOTE THAT THIS WILL NOT CLEAR THE BUFFER OF ANY DATA PREVIOUSLY SENT.
UNDERLINE(15H) : Characters sent after this command will be underlined. Tabs are not
underlined. Underlining is terminated by the underline release command or upon completion of
the current line.
UNDERLINEL RELEASE(18H) : Terminates the underline mode.
REVERSE PRINT(1AH) : This command causes the printer to print white o n black. You can
toggle between reverse and normal anywhere on a line but the reverse print mode will
automatically be terminated at the end of a line.
DOUBLE HEIGHT(1AH) : Upon receiving this command the printer will go in the double high
mode and re mains in this mode until terminated by the single wide command or completion of
the current line.
NOTE THAT DOUBLE HEIGHT AND SINGLE HEIGHT CHARACTERS CANNOT BE
COMBINED ON THE SAME LINE.
GRAPHICS(1BH,N) : This command causes the printer to go in the bit image printing mode.
The number of graphic bytes sent will depend on the type of mechanism. For each graphic byte
sent to the printer, 6 out of 8 bits are used to form the graphic string (LSB is the right most dot).
N is the number of times the string will be repeated for a repetitive pattern, 0N255 lines. The
print buffer will be printed first if not empty.
EXAMPLE : TO REPEAT A S TRING OF DATA BYTES,D1----D24 OVER TWO ROWS FOR
OM190: SEND : 1BH,D1-------------D24. FOR A NON -REPEATED STRING SEND :1BH,01H,D1-

11.2.2 EPSON ESC/POS COMMAND DESCRIPTION
TAB(09H) : : Moves the print position to the next horizontal tab position. The default tab
positions are at every 8 character intervals. This command will be ignored unless the nest
horizontal tab position is set.
LINE FEED(0AH) : Prints the data in the print buffer and feeds one line based on the current
line spacing . IF LF+CR IS SENT, CR WILL BE IGNORED TO AVOID DOUBLE FEEDING.
FORM FEED(0CH) : Prints the current line and feeds the number of lines programmed by using
the ESC C command.
18
CR(0DH) : This command prints the data in the print buffer and feeds one line. If a LF is sent
immediately after CR, it will be ignored t o avoid double printing.
ESC ! n(1BH,21H,n) : Sets the print mode according to the following table. n is a single byte in
which each bit sets the printing function. Note that underline cannot be used with a horizontal
tab and any combination of double height and width can be used. Default is n=0.
