Epson LQ-2500 Printer User Manual


 
With a single sheet of paper loaded, are the POWER, ON LINE, and
READY lights on, and does the display read [ON LINE]? If not,
press the
ON
LINE button to place the printer on line. If the display
reads [PAPER 0UT] and the PAPER OUT light is on, check that
you’ve loaded the paper correctly
Is your printer properly connected to your computer? Are you using
the correct interface (serial or parallel)? If you’re in doubt, check
your computers documentation.
Before you actually print a document with an application program,
read the following chapter on SelecType.
SelecType separates the LQ-2500 from all printers that have gone
before it. The SelecType panel lets you control almost all printer
functions, while displaying exactly what’s going on.
After reading about SelecType, continue to Chapter 4 where Table 4-1
shows which printers you should select when setting up your
application programs.
Additional chapters cover the LQ-2500’s many fonts, typestyles, and
enhancements as well as the graphics and userdefined character
features. The appendixes in the back of this manual include the
LQ-2500 Command Summary (Appendix A), plus character tables and
additional technical information.
