Introduction

1

IntroductionThis Matrix Printer has been developed for daily correspondence purposes in the office. It meets the highest possible technical standards, and with proper use, it should provide many years of trouble-free operation. High-performance print qualities as well as operation with fanfold paper and cut sheets can be chosen. The following print qualities are available: Draft Print Quality (DPQ) Copy Draft Print Qualitiy (CPQ) Near Letter Quality (NLQ) Letter Quality (LQ) The electronic part controlled by a microcomputer operates the needle print head, 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 selection of paperpath or for automatic gap adjustment DC-motor for carriage transport step motor for paper feed The following features and options will further enhance the printers capabilities: push tractor 1 (front) (standard) manual single sheet feeder (front) (standard) automatic sheet feeder rear (ASF-R) (option) automatic sheet feeder front (ASF-F) (option) push tractor 2 (front) push tractor 3 (rear) (option) (option)

We recommend the use of original accessores for our printers. The use of others than original parts may reduce the performance of the printer and cause defects on the printer. For errors caused by the use of others than original accessories, your warranty become invalid.STOP

Caution: Activities described herein must only be performed by specially trained and qualified service personnel! Harmful voltages can be touched.

Setup

Possible settings: From 20 to 136 in 1/10 inch steps Default setting: 136/10 inch (136 characters at 10 characters/inch)

This parameter determines the actual paper width. If Head up = On, the print head moves to the calculated centre of the paper during the time the paper is moving in the protected zone. If Rightzo = On (see below), the print head moves out of the perforation zone on the right as long as the paper is being transported. Always set the Pagewid value slightly less than the actual paper width (e.g. for paper suitable for printing up to 80 characters per line, use a value between 70 and 75). Confirm your settings with the key Set and press the key Next to access the next group of parameters. 4.2.5.3 Left-hand area (Leftzon)

Possible settings: On/Off Default setting: Off

Setup

If the parameter is On, the printhead moves out of the form separation perforation zone (area) on the left as long as the paper is being transported. The Pagewid setting has no influence (see above). Confirm your settings with the key Set. 4.2.5.4 Right-hand area (Rightzo)

Select the Rightzo menu.

Online

Possible settings: On/Off Default setting: Off

Setup

If the parameter is On, the print head travels from the right-hand form separation perforation area towards the centre of the paper while the paper is moving. The Pagewid option must be correctly set in this case (see above). If this parameter is On, the print head carriage travels to the calculated centre of the form while the paper is loaded. Confirm your setting with the key Set and press the key Next to access the next group of parameters.
