INTRODUCTION The EPSON MX-80 F/T Dot Matrix Printer is a highly versatile, general-purpose and computer-grade printer featuring 80 CPS bi-directional printing with logical seeking capability and 9 X 9 dot-matrix character formation. The MX-80 F/T accepts the ASCII 96 codes and codes for special characters/symbols (e.g.. b; C 2). It also accepts codes for 64 graphic patterns. Characters can be printed in any desired size - enlarged, condensed, emphasized, normal, etc. The one-chip microprocessor is engaged in performing all functions of the Printer and the two built-in stepper motors of the MX-80 F/T control the carriage and paper feeding functions respectively. Therefore, versatile software controls, such as horizontal and vertical tabs, and form feed are at your disposal. The MX-80 F/T is capable of S-way paper handling such as fanfold paper,roll paper and cut paper sheet. In addition, various interface options are available to permit handshaking with most personal computers. Fig. 1. EPSON MX-80 F/T Dot Matrix Printer -1-
