2. To enter hex dump mode, hold down both the 

LF/FF

 and 

Load/Eject

 buttons while you press the 

Operate

 button to 

turn on the printer.

3. Open a software program and send a print job to the 

printer. Your printer prints all the codes it receives in 
hexadecimal format.

If characters are printable, they appear in the right column 
as ASCII characters. Nonprintable codes, such as control 
codes, are represented by dots. By comparing the characters 
printed in the right column with the printout of the 
hexadecimal codes, you can check the codes the printer is 
receiving.

4. To turn off hex dump mode, press the 

Pause

 button, eject 

the printed page(s), and then turn off the printer.

To keep your printer operating at its best, you should clean it 
thoroughly several times a year. Follow these steps:

1. Remove any paper loaded in the printer, and turn off the 

printer. Then remove the paper guide. If an optional cut-
sheet feeder is installed, remove it.

2. Use a soft brush to carefully brush away all dust and dirt 

from the outer case and paper guide.

3. If the outer case or paper guide is still dirty, clean it with a 

soft, clean cloth dampened with mild detergent dissolved in 
water. Keep the printer cover and front cover closed to 
prevent water from getting inside the printer.

Caution:
Never use alcohols or thinners to clean the printer; 
these chemicals can damage the printer components 
as well as the case.

Be careful not to get water on the printer mechanism 
or electronic components.

Do not use a hard or abrasive brush.

Do not spray the inside of the printer with lubricants; 
unsuitable lubricants can damage the printer 
mechanism. Contact an EPSON dealer if you think 
lubrication is needed.

If you need to transport your printer some distance, carefully 
repack it using the original box and packing materials, as 
described below.

1. Remove any paper loaded in the printer, and turn off the 

printer. Then remove the paper guide. 

2. Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet; then 

disconnect the interface cable from the printer.

3. If an optional cut-sheet feeder is installed, remove it. If any 

other options are installed, remove them and pack them in 
their original boxes.

Warning:
If you just used the printer, the print head may be hot; 
let it cool before you remove the ribbon cartridge.

4. Remove the ribbon cartridge as described on page 12.

5. Make sure the paper tension unit is installed and the tractor 

is installed in the rear push position. Close the printer cover 
and front cover.

6. Repack the printer, ribbon cartridge, paper guide, and 

power cord (if necessary) in the original packing materials 
and place them in the printer’s original box.
