HEX DUMP MODE
This printer has a useful hex dump mode for checking the print data
sent from your computer. The printer lists the print data in
hexadecimal form.
To enter the hex dump mode, follow these steps:
1. Check the power state.
2. Operate the switches according to the power state.
• If the printer has been turned off, turn on the printer.
The printer starts the self-test and the display shows the following
message.
04 SELF TEST
• If the printer has been turned on, reset the printer with the
RESET switch.
1) Press the SEL switch to set the printer off-line.
2) Hold down the SHIFT switch and press the RESET switch.
The display will show “RESET PRINTER”.
3) Press the SET switch with the “RESET PRINTER” selected.
The printer begins its reset and the display shows the following
message alternately.
08 RESET TO
→
USER SETTINGS
3. Press the CONTINUE/SHIFT switch.
The printer checks the CONTINUE/SHIFT switch at the end of
self-test or printer reset. If the switch is held down, the printer
enters the hex dump mode and goes on-line. The display will show
the message “HEX DUMP MODE” and the printer will return to
the on-line state.
✒ Note
If the printer returns to the on-line state without displaying the
message “HEX DUMP MODE”, you did not press the
CONTINUE/SHIFT switch immediately after pressing the SET
switch. Try the above steps once again.
