Graphics don't print correctly. Make sure that your software program is set for the printer emulation you are using. For example, if you are using the PS emulation, be sure that your graphics software is set for a PS printer. If you are using a serial interface, make sure that you set the appropriate protocol settings in the SelecType Serial menu; see Chapter 3. Graphics require large amounts of memory, so you may need to install additional memory in your printer; see Chapter 4. The printer prints completely blank pages. Make sure you have enough toner by checking the SelecType Toner option in the Setup menu; see Chapter 3 for instructions. Check that the imaging cartridge is installed correctly. Print out a status sheet by pressing the Enter button twice after the printer is warmed up and on line. If the status sheet prints correctly, check your interface cable connection and software settings for a solution. If blank pages continue to print, the problem may be with the printer. Turn off the printer and contact your authorized EPSON Customer Care Center. SelecType does not function as expected. Software programs override SelecType settings, so use your software settings instead of SelecType whenever possible. If your settings have been changed by your software, reset SelecType using the SelecType Init setting on the Setup menu; see Chapter 3 for details. You may not have activated new SelecType settings. Press the Alt and Continue buttons at the same time to reset the printer and enable the new settings. Troubleshooting 6-13
