5.6 Black Mark Parameters

This printer uses tractors to load fanfold forms with pre-printed black marks.

The printer requires 3 parameters to print on paper with black marks:

1. Horizontal offset of black mark from the edge of page (called Black Mark Physical

Horizontal Position); later on, this value facilitates the printer to locate its scanner

preparing for identifying the black marks.

2. Vertical offset of the first print line from the black mark (called Distance Offset From

Black Mark To Print Position); later on, the print makes use of this value to print the first

line relative to the black mark.

3. Vertical offset of the tear-off edge from the black mark (called Distance Offset From

Black Mark To Tear Position); this value informs the printer the tear-off position of the

page.

Not to skip or change the order of setting the above 3 parameters.

The procedures to set the parameters:

1. Hold down the Tear key while powering on the printer and then release the key when

the print head starts to move. After loading paper, the printer prompts the Printer

Settings

Printer Settings

[TEAR]=Back, [LF]=Next, [LOAD/EJECT]=OK, [ONLINE]=Exit,

[ONLINE]+[LOAD/EJECT]=Save and restart the printer.

System Setup

2. Press the Next or Back keys to scroll forward or backward the sub-menus till the printer

shows:

BlackMark Mode

3. Press OK to go into the BlackMark menu. The printer prompts:

[Black Mark Adjustment Mode]

[TEAR]= Back, [LF]= Next, [LOAD/EJECT]=OK, [ONLINE]=Exit,

[ONLINE]+[LOAD/EJECT]= Save and restart the printer.

Black Mark Physical Horizontal Position

Press any key to eject the paper, and load paper with black mark in the Fanfold

Path.

4. The last prompt above advises you to press any key to unload the dialog form. Then

load a fanfold form with black mark.

Tally Dascom 1140

5. Ensure to place the lever at position. Then press the Load/Eject key to load the black

marked form. The top edge of the form will then align with the printer’s tear-off blade.

Press Next or Back until you see the black mark marginally exposed out of the tear-off

blade. Then press OK to allow the printer to scan the horizontal offset of the black mark

relative to the left edge of the page. (Meanwhile, the vertical position of the black mark

is measured and recorded.)

When the printer fails to scan the horizontal offset, it prompts you to repeat the above

procedures. If scanning is successful, it prompts:

Successfully setup black mark parameters.

Distance Offset From Black Mark To Print Position

6. The last prompt above invites you to set the next parameter --- vertical offset of the first

print line from the black mark. Like other setting dialogs, you have options:

1) to bypass this setting (by pressing Next or Back), (WARNING: Not to skip or change

the order in Black Mark Setting.)

2) to accept the invitation (by pressing OK),

3) to leave the subsequent settings (by press Exit), or

4) to terminate the session and save modified parameter(s) (by pressing Save and

Restart).

7. When you respond with “OK” to set the vertical offset, the printer prompts you to reload

a black marked fanfold form:

Press any key to eject the paper, and load paper with black mark in the Fanfold

Path.

The top edge of the form will then align with the printer’s tear-off blade. Press Next or

Back to feed or reverse-feed the paper till the desired first print line position is reached.

(With the above measured vertical position, the printer will convert the net paper feeding

to the TOF relative to the black mark.) Press OK to confirm the vertical offset. Then the

print prompts the invitation for setting the tear-off position relative to the black mark:

Successfully setup black mark parameters.

Distance Offset From Black Mark To Tear Position

8. When you respond with OK to set the tear-off position, the printer prompts you to reload

a black marked fanfold form:

Press any key to eject the paper,and load paper with black mark in the Fanfold

Path.

The printer reloads the form. By default the form stops 5.5 inches away from the

printer’s tear-off blade. Press Next or Back to feed or reverse-feed the paper till the

desired tear-off position is reached. (With the above measured vertical position, the

printer will convert the net paper feeding to the tear-off position relative to the black

mark.) Press OK to confirm the tear-off offset relative to the black mark. Finally, press

Save and Restart to save new settings and terminate the session.

5.7 Bidirectional Alignment

When wiggling vertical grids appears in tabular reports, you should adjust the Bidirectional

Alignment. The procedures to adjust bi-directional alignment across adjacent line grids:

1. Hold down the Tear key while powering on the printer and then release the key when

the print head starts to move. After loading paper, the printer prompts the Printer

Settings.

Printer Settings

[TEAR]=Back, [LF]=Next, [LOAD/EJECT]=OK, [ONLINE]=Exit,

[TEAR]=-1, [LF]=+1, [LOAD/EJECT]=OK, [ONLINE]=Back,

[ONLINE]+[LOAD/EJECT]=Save and restart the printer

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

4. Every press on “+1” or “-1” shifts the second line to the right or left, respectively, relative

to the top line by 1 fine step. After pressing “+1” twice and then “OK”, the printer

prompts:

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

5. Repeat the adjustment till two grid lines align satisfactory as “|”. Press “OK” again. The

printer asks if you want to save the correction:

Save the parameter settings ([LOAD/EJECT] or [ONLINE] = OK, [LF] = Next)?

Yes

At this stage, you have the options to save or give up the correction by pressing OK or Next,

respectively. If you respond with OK, an asterisk “*” appends to “Yes” to confirm saving

change.If you intend to give up the correction by pressing Next, the printer prompts a “No”

Then a confirmative response of OK appends an asterisk “*” to the “No” prompt.

The printer then exits the Bi-directional Test and proceeds with the next setup menu.

6. The printer beeps once to indicate successful restoration.

Tally Dascom 1140

6 Customized Form

This printer allows the customization on the form length, Load/Eject, bottom margin and left

margin for single sheets and fanfold. Restore Factory Defaults can recover these default

values.

Selecting the Define value(s) in section 5.2 (Paper Setup menu) allows the printer to take up the

customized page formatting value(s).

The parameter setting procedures involve:

1. The printer prompts the dialogs and you follow the prompts.

2. Before every measurement or change, the print instructs you to unload the conversation

form from the printer.

3. With the exception of measuring the form length for cut sheets, always set the lever to

the tractors position .

4. For form length measurement, insert the customized form from the proper paper path.

The other six settings are actually done on general fanfold forms --- not the actual

customized form. Fanfold paper gives direct visual results on the TOF, bottom and left

margins even though cut sheets will be used in actual applicati

6.1 Customize Cut Sheet Form Length

conversation form to let the printer print out the measured length.

The measured form length is: 11.0Inch, approximately equal to 279mm,

accuracy of plus or minus 0.1 inches.

The measured value has been saved. Remeasure ( [LOAD/EJECT]=OK, [ONLINE] =Exit)?

Yes

Tally Dascom 1140

5. At this stage:

If Load/Eject is pressed, an asterisk “*” is appended to “Yes” and you should repeat the

procedures for form length measurement as mentioned. Or,

If you input “Exit”, the printer saves the measurement value and proceeds with the next

customized setting.

6.2 Customize Cut Sheet TOF

7 Maintenance

Your printer requires very little care. Occasional cleaning and replacement of the ribbon

cartridge are all that is required. Cleaning is recommended approximately every 6 months

or 300 hours of operation, whichever is sooner. Lubrication of the printer is not usually

necessary. If the print head carriage does not move smoothly back and forth, clean the

printer in the manner described in this chapter. If the problem continues, contact your dealer

to determine whether lubrication may be necessary.

Switch printer off and unplug the power cord from the main before doing any

maintenance work.

7.1 Cleaning

The housing and the top cover of the printer help protect it against dust, dirt, and other

contaminants. However, paper produces small particles that accumulate inside the printer.

This section explains how to clean and vacuum the printer and how to clean the paper bail

rollers. It is easier to clean the printer when the cover is open.

7.2 Cleaning and Vacuuming the Printer

If the print head carriage does not move smoothly back and forth or paper particles have

accumulated in the printer, clean the printer.

To clean and vacuum the printer:

1. Remove any paper from the printer. Make sure that the power is off, and then

disconnect the printer power cord.

2. Using a soft vacuum brush, vacuum the exterior of the printer. Also vacuum the cut

sheet edge.

3. Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe the exterior of the printer, including the cover. A mild

detergent may be used. Do not use solvents, kerosene, or abrasive cleaning materials

that may damage the printer.

4. Open the cover of the printer and remove the ribbon cartridge. Using a soft vacuum

brush, gently vacuum the platen, the print head carriage and shaft, and surrounding

areas. You can easily slide the print head to the left or right when the power is off. Be

careful not to press too hard on the flat head cable that extends from the print head

carriage.

5. Re-install the ribbon cartridge.

6. Remove the single sheet feeder and clean the form tractors and the surrounding areas.

7. Re-install the single sheet feeder.

7.3 Cleaning the Paper Rollers

Clean the platen and paper bail rollers occasionally or when stains or smudges appear on

the paper. Use a mild detergent as appropriate. Do not use alcohol to clean the platen or

the rollers. Alcohol may cause the rubber to harden.

To clean the rollers and the platen:

1. Apply a small amount of water to a soft cloth. Avoid spilling liquid inside the printer.

2. Place the cloth against the platen and manually rotate the paper feed knob.

3. Repeat this procedure for each roller.

4. To dry the platen, place a dry cloth against the platen and the rollers and manually

rotate the paper feed knob.

8 Troubleshooting

Your printer is extremely reliable, but occasionally problems may occur. This chapter provides

information on some of the common problems you may encounter and how you may solve

them. If you encounter problems that you cannot resolve, contact your dealer or service

partner for assistance.

8.1 Print Quality Problems and Solutions

Problem

Solution

Printing is too light or too

dark.



Make sure that the ribbon cartridge is properly installed

and that the ribbon feeds smoothly.

 Replace the ribbon if necessary.

 Make sure that the print gap lever is set for the thickness

of your paper.

Smears and stains appear on

the page.

 Make sure that the print gap lever is set for the thickness

of your paper.

 Check for ribbon wear. Replace the ribbon if necessary.



Check whether the tip of the print head is dirty. Clean the

head with a soft cloth if necessary.

 The print head may need to be replaced.

Printing is erratic or the wrong

characters are printed. Many

“?” or unexpected characters

are printed.



Make sure that the interface cable is securely connected

to both the printer and computer.



Make sure that the printer driver selected in your software

is the same as the emulation selected on the printer.

 Check the length of the interface cable. (Maximum

Parallel & USB: 2 meters, Serial: 15 meters)



Try another interface cable.

The page is blank.  Make sure that the ribbon cartridge is properly installed.

 Make sure the gap lever is set correctly.

Printing is vertically

misaligned (jagged).

Use the printer's vertical alignment function to check the

vertical print alignment. If necessary, adjust the print

alignment

The top margin is wrong.



Check the application top margin setting.

 Adjust the Top Margin setting in Page Setup menu if

necessary.

Lines are double spaced

instead of single spaced.



Change the Auto LF setting in the System Setup menu to

No.

The printer overprints on the

same line.



Change the Auto CR setting in the System Setup menu

to No.

The next print line starts

where the previous line ended

instead of at the left margin.

 Change the Auto CR setting in the System Setup menu

to Yes.

Tally Dascom 1140

8.2 Paper Handling Problems and Solutions

Problem Solution

Paper cannot be loaded or

fed.

 Make sure that the paper select lever located on the top

right of the printer is set correctly. Move the lever to the

front for single sheets or to the rear for continuous

forms.

 Make sure that the paper covers the paper-out sensor.

Paper jams while loading.

 Turn off the printer and remove the jammed paper.

Remove any obstructions from the paper path.

 Make sure that the Print Gap lever is set for the

thickness of your paper.

 Make sure that the paper is not folded, creased, or torn.

 Make sure that the left and right tractors are set so that

the continuous forms are stretched taut.

Paper jams while printing.



Turn off the printer and remove the jammed paper.

Remove any obstructions from the paper path.

 Make sure that the Print Gap lever is set for the

thickness of your paper.

 For continuous forms, make sure that the incoming and

outgoing paper stacks are correctly placed. Paper

should feed straight.

Paper slips off the forms

tractors or the perforated

holes of the paper tear during

printing.

Make sure that the forms tractors are positioned correctly

for the width of your paper and that the perforated holes of

the paper fit directly over the tractor pins.

Tally Dascom 1140

8.3 Operating Problems and Solutions

Problem Solution

The power does not turn

on.



Check whether the mains voltage is correct.

 Make sure that the power cord is securely connected to

both the printer and the mains power outlet.

 Make sure that the power outlet is functional. If not so, use

other outlet.

 Turn the power off. Wait a minute and then turn the printer

on again. If the printer still has no power, contact your

dealer.

The printer is on but it will

not print.



Make sure that the Online indicator is lit.

 If you use the interface cable, make sure it is securely

connected to both the printer and the computer.

 Make sure paper is loaded.

 Run the printer Status Page. If printing executes normally,

the problem is caused by: the interface, the computer,

incorrect printer settings, or incorrect software settings.

 Make sure that the printer driver selected in your software

is the same as the emulation selected on the printer.

Paper select lever error

If paper is loaded and the paper select lever is moved to the

incorrect position, the printer turns offline, and the buzzer

sounds continuously. Switch the paper select lever back to its

correct position.

8.4 Printer Failures

A user cannot generally resolve a problem involving defective printer hardware. Power off

and on again the printer to recover any fatal error. If the problem cannot be resolved, contact

your dealer or service partner.

8.6 Diagnostic Functions

The printer diagnostic functions are Self-Test page, hex-dump mode and print alignment

adjustment.

 Self-Test page: Tells you whether the printer hardware is functioning correctly. If the printer

hardware is functional, any problems you are having are probably caused by incorrect

printer settings, incorrect software settings, the interface, or the computer.

 HEX-DUMP MODE: Allows you to determine whether the computer is sending the correct

commands to the printer, and whether the printer is executing the commands correctly.

This function is useful to programmers or others who understand how to interpret hex

dumps.

PRINTING ALIGNMENT ADJUSTMENT: Allows you to check and, if necessary, correct the

printer’s vertical line print alignment in bi-directional mode.

For details on using these functions, please refer to chapters 4 and 5.
