The LQ-1500 has a 2048 character text buffer to increase printing speed. The buffer takes information quickly from your computer, leaving the computer free for other tasks while the LQ-1500 finishes printing. About This Manual The LQ-1500 is a sophisticated machine. Although it is simple to operate, writing programs for it can be complicated. In many cases, the people who use the LQ-1500 are not the ones who do the programming. Therefore, Epson has provided two different manuals. This LQ-1500 User's Manual contains all the information required to set up and operate, the LQ-1500. The LQ-1500 Programmer's Manual contains the information required to write programs for the LQ-1500. Epson also supplies Application Notes that tell you how to use the LQ-1500 with specific software programs. The first three chapters of this manual will help you set up, operate and maintain your printer. Chapter 4 contains information on how to use control codes with your printer. The appendixes contain helpful information about selecting print styles and character sets, and about using control codes to command certain printer functions. Appendix A summarizes the control codes. Appendix B explains how to change from one print style to another and shows examples of different print styles. Appendix C shows the character sets available on the LQ-1500, including the regular and international sets. Appendix D gives the dot width of each of the available proportional characters. Finally, Appendix E, a convenient conversion chart, provides all the possible names for each ASCII code. This user's manual is not long, but it contains a lot of important information. In spite of its simple design, the LQ-1500 is a precision printer, and you should know the right way to assemble and take care of it. Reading this manual will help assure you of success when you begin to use the LQ-1500. 2
