INTRODUCTION The Epson C82315* Twinax Interface Card allows you to connect your Epson printer to an IBM 34/38/38 or IBM AS400 computer system or to a remote controller connected to these systems. This interface card provides your Epson printer with the following features: Emulation of the IBM 5219 or 3812 letter-quality printers as well as the IBM [...]

SETTING UP THE INTERFACE CARD Follow the instructions in this section to install this interface in your Epson printer. UNPACKING THE INTERFACE Check that in addition to this user’s guide, your interface kit includes all the items listed below, and that none has been damaged during shipping. Twinax interface card (in a plastic anti-static bag) Twi[...]

Also, because this interface can be damaged by static electricity, you should prepare the interface card for installation according to the procedure below: 1. While the interface is still in its anti-static bag, place it next to your printer. 2. Place the twin-axial cable from the host computer on top of the anti-static bag; make sure the metal con[...]

1. Connect the twin-axial connectors of the twin-axial V connector to your host computer system cable. 2. Insert the twin-axial V serial cable into the 9 pin twin-axial serial connector on the interface. 3. Tighten the thumbscrews on both sides of the twin-axial serial cable connector to secure it to the interface. MAKING ADDITIONAL SETTINGS In add[...]

You may insert one or several commands, as long as they are all in hexadecimal format, and they are commands that are used by your printer in its current mode. You may also insert spaces between hexadecimal pairs to increase visual clarity; however, do not put any’spaces after the first &% characters or before the last &% characters. 4. A[...]

For example, you could define user-defined string 1 to be the command string to turn on bold printing, as used in the example in the previous section. Then, instead of inserting the &% 1B 45&% command in your text, you would insert only &%U1. INTERFACE SETUP COMMANDS You send these commands in a similar manner to command-pass-thru, but [...]

6. When you finish changing settings, press the Enter key to save the new settings in the interface memory. 7. Turn off the printer and return switch 8 to the on position to resume using the twinax interface.

EMULATION DETAILS The C82315* interface emulates several IBM printers. However, you should be aware of slight differences in operation caused by mechanical and other differ- ences between IBM and Epson printers. The differences for each emulation are described in the following sections. 4214/5224 EMULATION Epson printers and 4214/5224 printers have[...]

Because the interface adjusts data to fit in the number of columns available on Epson printers, printed characters may not be perfectly symmetrical. NOTE: When printing high-density graphics, you may not be able to print adjacent dots. This may cause gaps when printing bar codes, so bar code printing is not recommended. 5219 EMULATION The font ID n[...]

FONT ID The 3812 emulation uses IBM font ID’s to switch from one HP font to another. Only certain IBM font ID's can be used as the system default. These are noted by an asterisk (*) in the Font ID table in Appendix A-3 of this manual. You specify the default font ID for your printer when you configure the printer on the IBM host. Have your s[...]

HEX PRINT During hex print, the printer prints the data received in hexadecimal format. You can then check if the data you are sending is reaching the printer. The printer prints this hex data on a grid corresponding to the data’s position in the buffer. If the hex data represents a printable character, that character is printed to the right of t[...]

1. Make sure the printer is turned off. 2. Disconnect the V-connector from any twin-axial cables (but leave it connected to the interface). Since the interface transmits data to itself during this test, leaving it connected to the twin-axial cable could disrupt the twin-axial system. 3. Write down the positions of switches 1, 2, and 3 (you need to [...]

ERROR IN POLL ADDRESS X A poll test was sent to the indicated address but was not received properly. This could be caused by a terminated cable not being properly installed, a circuit that is non-functioning, or intermittent connections.
