When to use SelecType

The SelecType mode enables you to make printer settings similar to those you would normally make in the driver or software, as well as other additional settings — directly through the control panel.

Note:

Some applications may send commands to the printer that override the SelecType settings. If you are not getting the results you expect, check your application's settings.

To see the current SelecType settings, print a status sheet.

PRINTER SETUP

This menu contains the following items.

ROLL COUNTER or SHEET COUNTER

You can get a message when there is not much paper left, by setting the roll alert or sheet alert.

When using roll paper, enter the length of roll paper set in the printer and the alert value.

When using cut-sheet paper, enter the number of cut sheets set in the printer and the alert value.

Note:

This setting is available only when you select Roll Paper or Cut Sheet for PAPER COUNTER in the Maintenance mode.

PLATEN GAP

You can adjust the distance between the print head and paper. Normally, leave this set to STANDARD. If you find that printed images are smeared, select WIDE or WIDER. Select NARROW for printing on thin paper, or WIDEST for printing on thick paper.

PAGE LINE

You can select whether to print the page line (line along which to cut off) on roll paper. Select ON if you want to print the page line, or OFF otherwise.

This operation changes according to the Auto Cut settings.

Paper Source	Print Page Line	Printer's Operation
Roll Auto Cut On	On	Prints a page line on the right side only, and cuts paper automatically after the print job.
Roll Auto Cut On	Off	Does not print any page lines, and cuts paper automatically after the print job.
Roll Auto Cut Off	On	Prints page lines on the right side and below the data, but does not cut paper automatically after the print job.
Roll Auto Cut Off	Off	Does not print any page lines and does not cut paper.

Note:

When Sheet is selected as the paper source, this setting is not available.

INTERFACE

You can select an interface to receive your print data. When you select AUTO, the printer automatically switches between interfaces, depending on which one is receiving data first. When you select USB, IEEE1394, or OPTION, only the selected interface receives your print data. If no more print job is received, the printer returns to an idle state after 10 seconds or more.

CODE PAGE

You can select a code page: PC437 (extended graphics) or PC850 (multilingual).

PAPER MARGIN

You can select margins for roll paper: T/B 15 mm, T/B 35 mm, 15 mm, or 3 mm.

Margin settings	Top	Bottom	Left/Right
T/B 15 mm	15 mm	15 mm	3 mm
T/B 35 mm	35 mm	35 mm	3 mm
15 mm	15 mm	15 mm	15 mm
3 mm	3 mm	3 mm	3 mm

When the same data is printed with a 3 mm margin and a 15 mm margin and compared, you may notice that part of the right side of the 15 mm margin image is not printed.

PPR SIZE CHK

When you select ON, the printer stops printing if the width of paper loaded in the printer does not match the data width. When you select OFF, the printer continues to print even if the paper width does not match the data, and the printer may print beyond the paper.

Note:

When you load the paper using the manual feed slot, select ON.

PPR ALIGN CHK

When you select ON, if the paper is not straight, PAPER NOT STRAIGHT appears on the LCD and the printer stops printing. When you select OFF, a paper align error does not occur even if the printed data is out of range of the paper, and the printer continues to print.

TIME OUT

The setting range is 30 to 300 seconds. If the cable of your printer is unplugged or your printer hangs up for more than the set time range, the print job is cancelled and the printer starts paper feed.

CUTTER ADJ

You can adjust the paper cutting position when printing with a top and bottom margin of zero. This function prints cutter adjustment patterns and you can select the appropriate cutting position from them.

REFRESH MRGN

When you select ON, the printer cuts an extra print area after borderless printing is used automatically.

SHEET SIZE CK

When you select ON, if the size of the cut-sheet paper loaded in the printer does not match the size of data, the printer stops printing and WRONG PAPER SIZE appears on the printer's control panel. When OFF is selected, the printer continues to print even if the size of the cut-sheet paper does not match the data, and the printer may print beyond the paper.

AUTO NZL CK

When you select ON, the printer performs a nozzle check before printing, for each print job.

Note:

Do not select ON if you are using non-Epson special media, or if the width of paper you are using is less than 210 mm.

This setting is available only when you select ON for AUTO CLEANING.

AUTO CLEANING

When you select ON and perform a nozzle check from the printer driver or the control panel, the printer not only checks for clogged nozzles, but also performs head cleaning automatically.

Note:

Do not select ON if you are using non-Epson special media, or if the width of paper you are using is less than 210 mm.

QUIET CUT

When you select ON, the printer cuts the printout slowly to decrease the cutting noise and paper particles.

INIT SETTINGS

You can return all setting values you have made in the PRINTER SETUP to their factory set value.

CUSTOM PAPER

This menu contains the following items. To make the paper setting, see Making the paper settings.

PAPER NUMBER

When you select STANDARD, the printer determines paper thickness automatically. You can also select No. X (X can be any number between 1 to 10) to register the following settings or to recall the following settings you have made.

Platen gap

Thickness pattern

Thickness number

Cut method

Paper feed adjustment

Eject roller type

Drying time

Suction

MicroWeave adjustment

Note:

If you select STANDARD, the printer prints data according to the driver settings. If you select No. X, the control panel settings override the driver settings unless you select AUTO in THICKNESS NUM.

PLATEN GAP

THICKNESS PAT

You can print the paper thickness detection pattern. If you select STANDARD in PAPER NUMBER, the pattern is not printed.

THICKNESS NUM

If you use Epson special media, normally select AUTO. If you use non-Epson special media, check the paper thickness detection pattern, and then enter the number for the print pattern with the smallest gap.

CUT METHOD

You can specify a cutting method: STANDARD, THIN PAPER, THICK, FAST, or THICK, SLOW.

PPR FEED ADJ

You can set the paper feed amount. The range is -0.70 to 0.70%.

EJECT ROLLER

You can select AUTO, SHEET, ROLL CURLED, or ROLL NORMAL.

AUTO	The printer selects the most appropriate setting automatically. When you use Epson special media, usually select this setting.
SHEET	If you want to print on cut-sheet paper that is non-Epson special media, select this setting.
ROLL CURLED	If you want to print on strongly curled roll paper that is non-Epson special media, select this setting. Note: Make sure that the ink is dry enough on the paper before the roller touches the media; otherwise, the ink will soil the roller surface, which stamps on the prints.
ROLL NORMAL	If you want to print on roll paper that is non-Epson special media, select this setting. When roll paper is selected for the printer, this parameter is selected and no feed roller is used. If you select this parameter while using cut sheets, you need to eject the cut-sheet paper one by one.

DRYING TIME

You can set the ink drying time for each print head pass. The range is 0 to 10 seconds.

SUCTION

You can set the suction pressure used to feed the printed-paper. Select STANDARD, -1, -2, -3, or -4.

M/W ADJ

You can adjust the MicroWeave mode. The setting range is STANDARD, 1 and 2. Increase the value to give priority to the print speed, or decrease it to give priority to the print quality.
