INTRODUCTION

The EPSON MX-80 F/T Dot Matrix Printer is a highly versatile, general-purpose and

computer-grade printer featuring 80 CPS bi-directional printing with logical seeking

capability and 9 X 9 dot-matrix character formation. The MX-80 F/T accepts the

ASCII 96 codes and codes for special characters/symbols (e.g..

2).

It also

accepts codes for 64 graphic patterns.

Characters can be printed in any desired size - enlarged, condensed, emphasized,

normal, etc. The one-chip microprocessor is engaged in performing all functions of

the Printer and the two built-in stepper motors of the MX-80 F/T control the carriage

and paper feeding functions respectively. Therefore, versatile software controls,

such as horizontal and vertical tabs, and form feed are at your disposal.

The MX-80 F/T is capable of S-way paper handling such as fanfold paper,roll paper

and cut paper sheet.

In addition, various interface options are available to permit handshaking with most

personal computers.

STEP 4. Place the Printer with the packing material on a table or any other con-

venient flat surface.

STEP 5. Take off the packing material carefully.

STEP 6. Remove the vinyl cover.

2.2. Repacking steps

Repacking can be carried out by following the above steps in the reverse order.

(Repacking: Shipment for repair, storage, etc.)

NOTE: It is recommended that all original packing materials be saved for reuse in case

the MX-80 F/T requires reshipment in the future.

3. Installation of the Printer

(b)

(c)

(d)

(e)

Place the Printer on a bench, tabletop or any other convenient flat sur-

face with enough room for the separator in the back of the Printer.

NOTE: Rubber feet are provided to prevent the marring of the surface on

which the MX-80 F/T is placed.

Avoid operating the MX-80 F/T in places where it may be exposed to

direct sunlight or where a great deal of greasy dust exists in the air.

NOTE:

Greasy dust may cause the malfunction of the print head.

Connect the power cord to an outlet separated from those connected

to noise-generating equipment, such as large-power motors, refrigera-

tors, etc.

Do not subject the Printer to temperatures below 5°C

(4O’F)

or above

35°C (95’F) during operation, to sudden changes in temperature, or to

extreme shock.

(2) Removal of protective paper for paper end detector

The MX-80 F/T is provided with a protective paper inserted between the

inner and outer paper guides to protect the paper end detector from

damage due to shocks or vibrations during transportation. Before using the

Printer, be sure to remove this paper. If the MX-80 F/T is to be reshipped.

remember to return it to the original position.

(3) Removal of shipping screws

The purpose of the shipping screws is to protect the MX-80 F/T against any

damage that may be caused by shocks or vibrations during transportation.
