EPSON Stylus PHOTO 2100/2200 1.3.8 Panel Operation for Roll Paper Printing PANEL OPERATION IN ROLL PAPER MODE (WITHOUT CUTTER, TEAR-OFF LINE PRINTING) To shift to the paper roll mode, use the roll paper mode selection command of the remote commands. The following indicates the basic panel operating procedure for printing on roll paper. Operating procedure 1. Insert roll paper from the roll paper guide. *a 2. Receive the roll paper data and perform printing until the end of the job. After the printing is over, the printer does not eject paper and enters the switch waiting status. *b 3. Press the Roll paper switch to execute Tear Off (with tear-off line). *c 4. Cut off the paper along the tear-off line. 5. Press the Roll paper switch to execute return from Tear Off. *c 6. Press the Roll paper switch for 3 seconds to back out the paper. *d Continued to the right field. With the Paper detection sensor on for 2 seconds, the roll paper is fed automatically. After the roll paper is fed, the operation with the Paper switch is masked. If consecutive print jobs come, the CR stops at the end of the last job, and the printer does not eject the paper and enters the switch waiting status. At this time there are no print margins between the jobs. If the next print jog comes at this point, the printer does not print and waits for return from Tear Off. If there is a next print job, the printer prints and Steps 2. to 5. are repeated. Continued to the right field. Revision B Continued from the left field Continued from the left field 7. When the roll paper cannot back out any more, remove the roll paper with your hands. *d 8. Press the Roll paper switch or Paper switch to clear a paper jam. The printer returns to the normal mode. After back-out, the Paper LED blinks. The masked Paper switch is de-masked. If the roll paper cannot be removed after one back-out, press the Roll paper switch or Paper switch for 3 seconds to execute back-out again. The Paper LED goes off. *a : If power is switched off at this point, the panel feeding status is stored onto the EEPROM. When power is switched on again, the printer does not eject paper. The operation in Step 2. and later can be performed. *b : If power is switched off at this point, the roll paper mode status is stored onto the EEPROM. When power is switched on again, the printer does not eject paper. The operation in Step 3. and later can be performed. *c : If power is switched off at this point, the roll paper mode status is stored onto the EEPROM. When power is switched on again, the printer does not eject paper. The operation that follows can be performed. *d : If power is switched off at this point, the roll paper mode is canceled and the panel feeding cancel is stored. When power is switched on again next, the printer enters the normal mode. PRODUCTION DESCRIPTION Functions 31
