Troubleshooting
Turn off the skip over perforation
setting in the default-setting mode or
the EPSON Remote! utility. See
"About Your Printer's Default
Settings" on page 5-4 or "Using the
EPSON Remote! Utility" on page 4-30.
What to do
Make sure that you are using the
correct interface cable and that the
communications protocol is correct.
See "Optional interface cards" on
page A-4 and your computer
documentation. If you installed an
optional serial interface card, also see
"Installing an Interface Card" on page
A-29.
Select the correct character table using
your software, the default-setting
mode, or the EPSON Remote! utility.
The character table setting in your
software overrides settings made in
the default-setting mode or the
EPSON Remote! utility.
Choose the correct printer from the
Windows desktop or in your
application before printing.
Make sure that your application
software is set up correctly for your
printer. See your application
documentation. If necessary, install or
reinstall the printer driver software as
described in Chapter 1.
