6 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 mains before doing any maintenance work.
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.
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.
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.
Tally Dascom 1225

4. To dry the platen, place a dry cloth against the platen and the rollers and manually rotate the paper feed
knob.

7 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.
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)
• 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 1225
42
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.
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.

Diagnostic Functions
The printer diagnostic functions are Self-Test page, hex-dump mode and print alignment adjustment.
x 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.
x 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.
x 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.

Firmware Update
Sometimes it is necessary update the firmware to solve a problem. The latest firmware file may be obtained
from your dealer or downloaded from our website www.dascom.com. Before upgrading firmware, it is strongly
recommended to print the Main Menu page to keep a record of the old settings.
Note: Firmware update should only be performed by an authorized service person. We disclaim any
responsibility for any damage caused if it is performed by any other person.
To load new firmware, proceed as follows:
1. Switch off the printer. Connect your PC to the parallel port on the printer.
2. Press and hold down 4 keys (S2, S3, S4, S5) while powering on the printer.
3. Alternate flashing of L9 and L10 LEDs indicates printer is ready for firmware update.
4. Go to the DOS prompt window. Copy the firmware file (with extension .MOT) to your printer as follows:
COPY /B <filename>.mot PRN
5. When new firmware is being received, L1 and L2 will flash, followed by L1 and L3 flashing, then
followed by L1 and L4 flashing.
Note: Do not interrupt the downloading process to prevent possible flash memory corruption.
6. When downloading is completed, the carriage returns to home position. Printer initializes normally.
Alternatively, you can use the Firmware Flash Tool version 3.5 or higher which is available in the CDROM and
