The printer prints strange symbols, incorrect fonts, or other
inappropriate characters.
Cause What to do
Your printer and computer
are not communicating
correctly.
Make sure you are using the correct
interface cable and that the
communications protocol is correct.
See Connecting the Printer to Your
Computer on page 1-8. If you
installed an optional serial interface
card, also see Installing an optional
interface card on page 1-10.
The wrong character table is
selected in your software.
Select the correct character table using
your software or the default-setting
mode. The character table setting in
your software overrides settings
made in the default-setting mode.
The printer you want to use
is not selected in your
software.
Choose the correct printer from the
Windows desktop or in your
application before printing.
Your application software is
not configured correctly for
your printer.
Make sure that your application
software is configured correctly for
your printer. See your application
documentation. If necessary, install or
reinstall the printer driver software as
described on page 1-12.
Software settings override
settings you make using the
default-setting mode or the
control panel buttons.
Use your application software to
select the font.
