Printing A Hex Dump - Epson FX-1180 User Manual

Printing a Hex Dump

If you are an experienced user or a programmer, you can print
a hexadecimal dump to isolate communication problems
between the printer and your software program. In hex dump
mode, the printer prints all data it receives from the computer
as hexadecimal values.
You can print a hex dump using either single sheets or
continuous paper. See Chapter 3 for instructions on loading
continuous paper, or Chapter 4 for instructions on loading
single sheets.
Note:
Use paper that is at least 210 mm (8.3 inches) wide, such as A4 or letter
size paper.
To print a hex dump, follow the steps below.
1. Make sure paper is loaded and the printer is turned off.
Caution:
c
Whenever you turn off the printer, wait at least five
seconds before turning it back on; otherwise you may
damage the printer.
2. To enter hex dump mode, hold down both the LF/FF and
Load/Eject buttons while you press the Operate button to
turn on the printer.
