Epson FX-86e Printer User Manual


 
DIP Switch Settings
The FX has twelve DIP (Dual In-line Package) switches that allow
you to change many of the printer’s settings to suit your individual
needs. The DIP switches are in two groups, mounted on the back
panel, as shown in Figure D-1.
Figure D-1.
DIP switch location
Each individual switch is numbered so that DIP switch 1-1 is the
switch at the far left side and the one at the far right is DIP switch 2-4.
You can easily reset the switches with a thin, pointed object such as a
small screwdriver or the cap of a ballpoint pen.
Note
When you change a DIP switch setting, turn off the power, reset the
switch or switches, then turn on the power again. The printer checks
and recognizes new settings only at the time the power is turned on.
The following tables describe the switches and their functions.
