GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS 6. EE-PROM mode
6-1. Outline
These settings can be changed in the EE-PROM mode by writing data directly to the EE-PROM on the main logic board: Setting EE-PROM mode Send <ESC><SUB>(09)H command. Canceling EE-PROM mode Initialize the printer by sending <ESC>@
6-2. Explanation of special control codes

<ESC>@ <ESC>M@ Exits printer from EE-PROM mode and initializes the printer. Returns all data in the EE-PROM to the factory settings. After the buffer is cleared, the buzzer sounds. If the printer is powered off before the buzzer sounds, all data in the buffer is not cleared. If all data is not cleared from the buffer, operation is not guaranteed. Be sure to allow the buzzer to sound before you turn the printer off!
<ESC>MWn Code <ESC>MW0 <data> <ESC>MW1nm <ESC>MW2<data> Function Stores data into entire area of EE-PROM. Stores data (m) into the address (n) Stores auto-start software data into EE-PROM. Address Capacity 00H-7FH 128bytes nH 1 byte 40H-5EH 30bytes 5FH-7DH 30bytes
The data (m) used in the commands above are stored in the specified address in order (n). When the data to be stored exceeds the specified capacity, subsequent data are ignored. Data are stored in the EE-PROM according to the memory map. (See section 3. EDS mode setting and 6-3. EE-PROM Map.) After all data are stored, a beep indicates the completion of storage. If the printer is powered off during data storage, data stored before power off are valid, but subsequent operation of the printer is not guaranteed. Do not power off the printer while data is being stored! <ESC>MR Dumps all data in the EE-PROM to a hard copy. For an example of using these control codes, see section 6-4. For the corresponding EE-PROM addresses, see the EE-PROM memory map in section 3-2. EDS mode setting and 6-3 EE-PROM Map.

Mechanism
4-1. Print Head Mechanism

The print head consists of 9 needle wires and 9 print solenoids. The following explains how each needle wire operates during printing. (1) When the print solenoid is energized, the clapper is attracted by the iron core and the needle wire is driven toward the platen. (2) This needle wire hits the platen via the ink ribbon and paper. A single dot is printed on the paper. (3) When the print solenoid is de-energized, the needle wire is returned to its original position by rebound energy and spring and clapper holder (leaf spring) force.

THEORY OF OPERATION
4-2. Print Head Carrying Mechanism

The print head carrying mechanism consists of a carriage, timing belt, carriage motor, and home position detector. Carriage The carriage is supported horizontally by the carriage stay and rear angle. The carriage moves from side to side with the print head mounted above it. A timing belt is clamped to the base of the carriage and a shield plate is mounted at the base for home position detection. Timing Belt The timing belt is suspended between the timing pulley of the carriage motor and the timing pulley of the tension lever. The timing belt maintains a constant tension. The timing belt is also clamped to the base of the carriage so that it can move the carriage accurately with driving force from the carriage motor. Carriage Motor The carriage motor is a PM (permanent magnet) 4-phase, 48-pole pulse motor driven by pulse signals from the control circuit. The rotational rate depends on the number of pulses per unit time. By varying this rotational rate (carriage carrying rate), the size of the horizontal letters can be changed in each print mode.
Fig. 2-5 Print Head Carrying Mechanism
25
THEORY OF OPERATION
4-3. Ink ribbon feed mechanism
The ink ribbon feed mechanism is linked to the print head carrying mechanism so the ink ribbon always winds automatically in the same direction while the carriage moves left and right. The movement of the carriage along the serrated edge of the rear angle of the printer mechanism drives the idler gear. The rotation of the idler gear is conveyed sequentially to the gears that work and wind the ribbon. The carriage has a clutch lever that keeps the direction of the cassette gear rotation constant, regardless of the direction of the idler gear rotation as the carriage moves left and right.
Fig. 2-6 Ribbon feed mechanism
26
THEORY OF OPERATION
4-4. Paper Feed Mechanism
The paper feed mechanism consists of a paper feed motor, an idler gear, a platen and a traction unit. The paper feed motor is a PM (Permanent Magnet) 4-phase and 48 pulse motor. There are two ways of feeding paper into the printer: the friction method and the tractor method. You can select the method you want to use by setting the release lever on the push tractor unit.
Position of release lever Linkage between tractor gear and PF idler gear Platen roller and Pinch roller Release lever position detector Paper feeding method (1)
[1] Not linked Pressed OFF Friction
[2] Linked Not ON Tractor
(2)
Friction Method Friction method is selected when the release lever is position [1]. With this method, paper is pressed between the Platen roller and the Pinch roller therefore, paper is fed as the rollers turn. As the paper feed motor is driven, the motor gear, through the idler gear, turns the platen gear in the paper feeding direction. However, since the tractor gear and the PF idler gear are not linked at this time, the tractor unit will not be driven. Tractor Method Tractor method is selected when the release lever is position [2]. Paper feeding is facilitated by rotation of the sprocket pin of the tractor unit. When the tractor method is selected, the tractor gear is linked to the PF idler gear, enabling the drive force generated by the paper feed motor to be transferred to the tractor unit via the idler gear.

MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION 1. Maintenance
In order to maintain the optimum performance of this printer and to prevent trouble, maintenance must be carried out according to the following items.
1-1. Cleaning
(1) Removal of dirt Wipe off dirt with a soft cloth soaked in alcohol or benzine. Note: Do not use thinner, trichlene or ketone solvents because they may damage plastic parts. Also during cleaning, be careful not to moisten or damage electronic parts, wiring, or mechanical parts. Removal of dust, pile, etc. Vacuum cleaning (with an electric cleaner) is preferred. Remove all dust, etc., inside the printer. Note: After cleaning, check the oil level. If it is not adequate due to cleaning, replenish it.
(2)
1-2. Checks
Checks must be carried out at two levels: a daily check which the operator can easily carry out during operation, and a periodic check which an expert should carry out. (1) Daily check When the printer is used on a daily basis, check that the printer is used properly. Make sure that the printer is operating under the best conditions. Is any paper stuck in the paper box or printer case? Is the cartridge ribbon set at the right position? Is there any foreign matter inside the printer? (Remove if any.) Is the print head getting excessively dirty? (2) Periodic check After 6 months or printing 1 million lines, the periodic check and lubrication must be carried out. Check for deformation of springs. Check the gap between the platen and the print head. Remove dust, dirt, etc., around the detectors.
49
MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION 2. Lubrication
Lubrication is very important to maintain optimum performance and to prevent trouble.
2-1. Lubricant
The type of lubricant greatly affects the performance and durability of the printer, especially in a low temperature environment. We recommend use of the grease and lubrication oils listed below for this printer Type of oil Grease Lubricant Silicone oil Product name MOLYKOTE EM-30L Mobil 1 KF96-1000CS Mobil oil Shin Etsu Chemicals Industry Co, LTD Maker DOW CORNING ASIA LTD
2-2. Lubricating Method

When lubrication is carried out in assembly and disassembly, wash parts well to remove dust and dirt before lubrication. Lubrication must be carried out regularly once every 6 months or after 1 million lines have been printed. Lubrication is necessary irrespective of the regular lubrication whenever lubricant becomes deficient after cleaning or whenever parts have been disassembled or replaced.

TROUBLESHOOTING 1. Troubleshooting Procedures
Troubleshooting is never easy because various problems arise depending upon the particular location of the breakdown. The following procedures should be taken in making repairs. (1) The first method is to make repairs through unit replacements. The two display codes appearing in the flow chart are defined as follows: 1) indicates main logic board replacement; and 2) indicates printer mechanism replacement, to be carried out if the problem has not been corrected. 1) 2) Main Logic Board Replacement Printer Mechanism Replacement
Check again at this time whether the replaced unit is malfunctioning. (This is done to rule out trouble caused by improper contact of connectors.) Replaceable units consist of the following: Power supply unit Main logic board Printer mechanism Control panel board In replacing these units, always refer to the unit replacement priority chart. (2) The second method is to make repairs by parts replacement to replace defective elements inside a particular unit. (Note 1) Before starting to repair, be sure to check visually the contact of the connector and the mounting of the IC in the IC socket. (Note 2) Always turn off power source and remove power plug before replacing any units or parts. (Note 3) All check items shown in the flow chart must be checked. Otherwise, newly mounted parts or units may become damaged. (Note 4) If, in the process of making repairs, there is any confusion about proper procedures, restart the job from the beginning. (Note 5) Be careful to avoid injury from static electricity when handling ICs and main logic board.
