3: Troubleshooting

General Troubleshooting

Problem:

Nothing happens when I turn on the printer.

Solutions:

1.Check the power cord connection to the outlet.

2.If you are using a power strip, make sure it is turned on and that the fuse has not blown nor the circuit breaker tripped.

3.Check the fuse (1) at the back of the printer:

Problem:

The printer does not print when the computer sends data.

Solutions:

1.Is the Status light on? If not, press

2.Check that the interface cable is securely connected to both the printer and to the computer or network.

3.If you have the optional accessory card installed, make sure it is firmly seated in the printer.

ON-LINE/RESET.

Problem:

I’m getting strange symbols, incorrect fonts, etc.

Solution:

1.Check to be sure that the printer driver you have selected in your software matches the printer emulation.

2.If you have embedded any printer commands in your software, check to be sure that you entered them correctly.

Problem:

The MENU, GROUP, ITEM, OPTION and STORE buttons on the front panel won’t work.

Solution:

The Op. Panel Function in the printer menu can be used to disable these buttons. If the printer is part of a customized system or if it is used by a number of people, the system manager may have used this option to make sure the printer is always set properly.

Problem:

The files I send do not print the way I have the menu and front panel set.

Solution:

Before sending a file to the printer, the software may be sending either an “initialization string” or an I-Prime signal to the printer.

The initialization string contains codes that override the panel and menu settings. To change the printer to ignore the reset code, press MENU to enter the menu mode, go to the Set-Up group and change the setting for the Reset Inhibit item to Yes (see Section 1 for more information on changing menu settings).

The I-Prime signal will automatically override any front panel settings you have made. To eliminate this problem, press MENU to enter the menu mode, go to the Parallel I/F group and change the setting for I-Prime to Invalid (see Section 1 for more information on changing menu settings).

Problem:

I am continuing to have paper exit jams.

Solution:

If you are using front feed, make sure that the front of the printer is flush with the edge of the table.

If you are using rear feed, make sure that the rear of the printer is flush with the edge of the table.

If you are switching paper paths on a regular basis, use a table/support for the printer which is close to the front-to-back depth of the printer so that both the front and rear of the printer can be placed flush with the edge of the support.

Problem:

The front access door won’t close properly.

Solution:

Make sure that the front-feed tractor covers are properly closed.

Problem:

I’m trying to print envelopes, but they keep jamming.

Solution:

If you load continuous-form envelopes at the default position, the auto gap thickness is sensed at the envelope’s flap position which is thinner than the envelope’s main area. This can cause jamming when the envelopes are being printed.

The auto gap needs to be set at the thicker area of the envelope. To do this:

1.Press

2.Hold

3.Press

4.Press

FF/LOAD to load the envelope forms into the print path.

SHIFT and press FF/LOAD/Micro Feed Up until the bail closes.

PARK to remove the envelopes from the print path. FF/LOAD.

5.Send one address to start the printhead moving so that the gap is automatically set for the double thickness area of the envelope.

6.Press

7.Hold

8.Press

PARK to remove the envelopes from the print path.

SHIFT and press PATH/TOF to reset the Top of Form to the factory setting.

FF/LOAD to load the envelopes back into the print path.

Serial Interface Test

To perform a local diagnostic test of the serial interface: Note: To stop the test at any time, turn the printer off.

You need a test connector to jumper the following pins:

1.Enter the printer menu and change the Diagnostic Test item in the Serial I/F group to Yes.

2.Turn the printer off.

3.Plug the test connector into the serial interface receptacle.

4.Turn the printer on:

• The printer prints the message “LOOP TEST”

• The printer checks the memory function of the message buffer, then prints “RAM

GOOD” if the memory check is okay, or “RAM BAD” if the memory check fails.

• The signal logic is checked. If the signal logic is okay, “I/F GOOD” prints. If it is

faulty, “I/F BAD” prints.

• Hexadecimal characters from 20 to 7E are transmitted through the TD (Transmit

Data) line, and received through the RD (Receive Data) line, then written to the message buffer. The above stored data is then printed.

• This process repeats until the printer is turned off.

5.Turn the printer off, then press and hold

MENU while turning the printer back on.

This ends the test and places you in the Menu mode.

6.Go to the Serial I/F group and change Diagnostic Test back to No.

7.Press

STORE to save the setting, then press MENU to exit the Menu mode.

Ethernet® 10/100 BaseT Interface

The print server has an Ethernet 10/100 BaseT interface with an RJ45 receptacle and a parallel interface for interconnection with the printer.

The interface is supplied with a short cable for connection of the parallel interface. Note: The Ethernet port requires a 10/100 BaseT cable with two twisted-wire pairs.
