Printer troubleshooting
Check whether the printer is set as the default printer, if not, set as follows: Click Windows "Start" menu, point to "Settings", click "Printers" to open the "Printers" window. Right-click the printer icon, the pop-up shortcut menu, click the "Set as Default." Check whether the current printer is set to pause printing, is in the "Printers" window, right-click the printer icon in the drop-down menu, check the "Pause Printing" is a small hook (eg ^ 07030406a ^ 1) option. If the "Pause Printing" option, deselect this option on a small hook, and then print again. Type a few lines of text in the "Notepad" or "WordPad" and then click "Print" on the "File" menu. If you can print the test document, may be used by the program you have problem, you use WPS, WORD, or other applications to check whether the correct printer, if the application generates a print file, check the program generate sprinter ribbon output is correct. Check whether the printer driver is corrupted, "Printer Driver" can cause damage to the printer can not print, you can right-click the printer icon, and select "Delete", and then double-click "Add Printer" and re-install the printer driver, then print again. If the re-installation works fine, the problem is a damaged printer driver.

Printer troub leshooting
Printer With the decline in prices, has begun to spread. In the process of using the printer, the most common problem is the printer can not print, this problem bring some trouble to the user.
First make sure the printer is online, on most printers, "OnLine" button next to have a little light indicates online status, normally the online indicator should be in steady state. If the light is off or is flashing, indicating that online is not normal. Check the printer is turned on, the printer's power switch is turned on, the printer cable is properly connected and the like. If the online indicator shows online correctly, please turn off the printer, and then turn again to try to print the document. This action can clear the printer to print a document stored in memory, data and can solve many problems, but sometimes this method will result in printouts with confusion, you need to reboot the system after normal printing.

Ribbon Fault and Maintenance

Ribbon Fault and Maintenance
1, breaking the ribbon - a printer ribbons tension is too large, pull off the sutures or word hammer smashing ribbon cause ribbon rupture. In the former case can be broken part cut, sewn back good; the latter case, as long as you can change the ribbon.
2. ribbon is jammed - off the wire edge ribbon, easily wrapped ribbon round after fluffing led ribbon round cards, ribbons not properly retract the ribbon cartridge. The solution: First, open the printer cover, turn the ribbon discharge interlock lever arm and hammer open, end ribbon belt ribbon cassette gently back, and then close the arm with the hammer on the ribbon row interlock handle, turn on the power, the machine will be in self-test ribbon Replace the ribbon cartridge.
3, ribbon capstan drive belt worn or broken - this failure is due to drive belt or chain of characters used for too long caused friction drive belt. The solution is to adjust the position of the character chain, it is no longer friction drive belt; already broken, replace it.
4, ribbon motion sensing signal interruption - to check if ribbon motion sensor signal line has been damaged, if broken, replace the signal line; then check the interlock signal conversion board Ribbon motion sensing line at J6 socket whether damaged or not, replace or plugged signal lines

Printing ribbon is not installed

In addition, there is a need to remind you note is a frame of built-in two gear must be the ribbon with, but also to ensure that keep parallel with them, or else gear to move the ribbon will move to the ribbon shift phenomenon, finally will jam the gear to the normal ribbon cannot be turned. When, in accordance with the above method after the ribbon is installed, we must also be in accordance with the original installation method will print reinstall back to printer, finally will be the top of the printer cover again in situ, so the ribbon change process even over.
Printing ribbon is not installed, replace, can ensure ideal printing effect, we must be the same with toner or cartridge protection to protect the good ribbon, to both improve the print quality and prolonging the service life of the ribbon. Of course, to protect the ribbon, some appropriate skills must be mastered, it's not some details of the following skills, will make everyone get it!
To familiar with the paper thickness regulator, to ensure that the print head and the distance from the surface of the printing paper always are in the right. Under normal circumstances, when the printer is using a new ribbon, that we can by adjusting the thickness of the paper regulator, the distance to the print head and paper surface slightly widened, so that you can avoid printed handwriting effect is too strong, which can effectively ensure the quality of printing; If printing ribbon, have been used for a long time, and print the current page text seems to have less clear than before, so we can try to adjust the paper thickness regulator, the distance to the print head and paper surface slightly closer and so can the ribbon "potential" dig out as much as possible. Under normal circumstances, we are adjusting the paper thickness regulator, should be to ensure that the printing effect can meet our needs under the premise of fully follow the principle of can is big. In other words this time, stylus printer can't completely quit the historical stage, and in ink jet printers and laser printers a dime today, instead of the role and status of the stylus printer appears more important and highlighted.

Needle type printer ribbon fault

1, the ribbon fracture
Tensile strength of the ribbon is too big, snap sutures or hammer smashing the ribbon ribbon fracture cause. Former broken part can be cut and sewn back; The latter case as long as change the ribbon.
2, the ribbon was stuck
The edge of the ribbon easily entangled epson printer ribbon  ound after take off a silk, burr, led to the card and ribbon round the ribbon not retract properly foil box. The solution is: first, open the printer cover, transfer ribbon arm interlock with hammer handle to open, the ribbon on the ribbon box to send belt end back gently, and then close the ribbon jib to interlock with hammer handle, open the power supply, machine ribbon will comes back after self-checking foil box.
3, damage of hall effect
Ribbon cassette, frequently hall effector squeezed continuously, causing the damage fracture. This kind of failure can only replace the ribbon derrick assembly or use the compatible olivetti printer ribbon motion sensor replacement.
4, the active wheel drive of ribbon belt wear or fracture
This failure is due to the driving belt use time is too long or character chain caused by friction drive belt. The solution is to adjust the position of the character chain to make it no longer friction driving belt; Has been broken, please replace.
5, ribbon movement sensing signal is interrupted
First check to see if the ribbon movement sensing signal lines has been damaged, if broken, please replace signal lines; To check the interlock switch board J6 socket in the ribbon movement sensing signal whether damaged or contact is not good, please replace or good signal lines.

Needle printer

Needle type printer is a special kind of printer, and ink-jet, laser printers are there is a big difference, and this difference needle type printer are other types of printers can not be replaced, it is precisely because of this, needle type printer always have their own unique market share, in the service of some special industry users.

Needle type printer in the print head is through 24 needle hit the carbon paper, thusforming a font, in use, the user can according to the demand to select multiple paper,commonly used multiple paper 2 joint, 3 joint, 4 joint papers, which have also used the6 associated printer paper. Multiple paper disposable needle type thermal transfer printer ribbon printer can onlyprint finished quickly, ink jet printer, laser printer is unable to realize the multipleprinting paper.Basic ----1964 years, Olympiad held in tokyo. At that time, responsible for providingtiming products Epson Corp especially developed crystal chronometer 951 and printtype chronograph. These two products are not only at the time to shine, but also for the future company transformation and Printer ribbon diversification brought profound R & D base and opportunity. Development - the world's first PC with mainstream needle type printerIn 1978, Epson Corp issued a needle type printer (7 pin) TP-80, product well received. In 1980, MP-80 (pin 9) published, also caused a sensation in the world,second years, MP-80 in the Japanese market share as high as 60%, in USA marketalso received high evaluation, gradually become the mainstream of the world's firstneedle type printer for PC products.

The thermal transfer ribbon type

To adapt to the different was printed materials and durability requirements, thermal transfer ribbons according to the coating materials can be divided into the wax, wax / resin mixture base, resin three.

A) wax: usually has a high density, the degree of Gao Min, used paper labels, printingeffect is good, the cost of economic.

Universal type wax based thermal transfer printer ribbon refill is applicable to most of the thermal transfer printer, in the case of low power consumption, high sensitivity can still achievethe ribbon printing density and definition of excellent print speed of up to 200mm/s.Heat resistance: 100 DEG C, print material: coated paper, coated paper, the melting point of 65 DEG C. Enhanced wax based thermal transfer ribbon print speed of up to 250mm/s. The melting point of 80 DEG C.

B) mixed base: both high-quality printing effect and durability, wide application, goodprice effect.

Wax / tree mixed base ribbon has the emotional Gao Min: consumption, delay the printhead life. Heat resistance: 100 DEG C, the printing speed: 250mm /s, print material: coated paper, coated paper, PVC, PET, PE, PP, melting point of 75 DEG C. Side pressure enhanced wax / tree mixed base ribbon printer is applicable to edge type printer,are compatible with many label paper, and has anti fouling characteristics of scratch.Print speed: 300mm /s, the melting point of 80 DEG C.

C) resin matrix: most durability, abrasion resistance, heat resistance, corrosion resistance, some formula can prevent steam pressure, some were able to washing ordry cleaning

Enhanced resin thermal transfer ribbon is suitable for flat type print head, in the case of low power consumption, print speed of up to 200mm/s. print resolution up to 200DPIto 300DPI. Heat resistance: 100 DEG C, the printing speed: 200mm/s, PVC, PET, printmaterials: PE, PP, melting point of 80 DEG C. Side pressure reinforced resin ribbon is applicable to edge type printer. In the case of low power consumption, unique back coating technology, make the printing more flexible easily, even do 90 degree rotationprinting. Heat resistance: 180 DEG C, the printing speed: 200mm/s, melting point of 80 DEG C:
