Epson printers issue beep tones when certain error conditions exist. Those beeps

can assist you in locating and repairing customer’s printers. The following error

codes are listed by product name.

NOTE:

Most of the beeps issued by the printers are of .1 second duration with a .1

second pause between beeps. Where the beeps or the pauses are longer,

it has been noted in the text. The description “3 Beeps x 2” means two sets

of three beeps.

NOTE:

Printers with LCD displays use error messages along with beeps to

inform the user of problems. The following messages will help you to

troubleshoot problems.

A blank LCD screen with the Power-on LED lit can be caused by a bent

pin on one of the PROM

or jumper J1 may be set incorrectly.

00 (1)

The font could not be found. The printer’s internal program could not

find the target font.

Internal ROM check does not match. The versions may have been mixed.

PSB No: P-0076

Page:

LQ-2550 cont.

A ‘Verify After Write” check to the SRAM has failed. The SRAM could be bad.

This is a motor control error. Four possible areas of failure are:

a. CR home condition not detected at power up

b. Platen gap motor HP not detected correctly

c. Friction/Tractor feed switching error

d. Physical obstruction such as a jammed ribbon

Skewed paper detect error. Since the initial reading upon loading a single

sheet paper, the paper has skewed. This is a printhead wire protection

feature.

Illegal paper positioning.

(1)

If the paper is loaded using the knob instead of the LOAD/EJECT switch,

this error condition will occur. This is a printhead wire protection feature.

(2)

PE sensor may have failed or is not connected.

CPU error. An undefined op-code was detected.

NOTES:

Error codes 11 and 12 are usually caused by new operators who are

un-familiar with the machine. Both of these errors are corrected by

turning the printer off, taking out the paper and turning the printer back

on. Both features were added to ensure proper paper handling and

prevent paper jams, which can result in printhead failures.

Incorrect jumper settings on the ROMA board may cause errors 10 or

20. The correct settings are documented in the Service Manual (page

A-54, figure A-52) and on TIB LQ2550-005.

Errors 0,2, 3, 10, and 20 may require a repair, adjustment or

replacement.

BULLETIN

P-0007

SUBJECT: LQ-800/1000 IBM GRAPHICS CHARACTER PRINTING

Here at Product Support we receive numerous questions about

the printing of IBM-type graphics on the LQ-800/1000 printers,

and about the difference between the ESC/P and IBM identity

modules.

The purpose of this bulletin is to address these

common questions.

Printing IBM Graphics Characters

The LQ-800/1000 cannot print the IBM graphics characters unless

it has either the ESC/P (#7696) or the IBM (#7695) identity

module installed.

Module Differences

Various options are available when using the identity modules,

depending on which is used.

The ESC/P provides the character

graphics forms from the IBM standard character set, as well as

Greek alphabet characters,

and some mathematical operation

symbols.

In comparison,

the IBMmodule has the Alternate

and Symbol character sets, in addition to the standard set.

These may be required for some applications.

Software commands also differ between the two modules.

The

ESC/P module will allow use of all standard Epson printer

commands normally available to the LQ printers, whereas the

IBM module causes the LQ printer to emulate an IBM 5152

printer,

with the loss of some Epson printer commands normally

available to the LQ.

All font modules are usable with either identity module.
