The following is a Support Matrix for the PT-4225/26 printers. PT-4225/4226 DOT MATRIX PRINTER PT-4225/4226 DOT MATRIX PRINTER 1.1.2 SOFTWARE INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION On SPx and 1800 systems, the PT-4225/4226 printers will require the installation of a separate Printer Definition File (PDF) product tape to allow for communications from the system to the printer. The PDF is primarily responsible for interpreting printer mnemonics from within apiogiam and producing the correct ouput for each printer. Each printer will then have it's own pre-defined PDF. Please see the installation instructions provided with the PDF tape for further information regarding installation and use of the PDF Tape. In addition, on the BOSS/VS systems, these printers require that the printer be defined within the system by using a utility call PRCONFIG. Please see the m.6H Software Announcement #170 for specific information regarding the system configuration for these printers.

The default settings for the PT-4225/4226 printers can be customized to meet specific applications by the use of the menu feature. This feature is activated by the use of the Mode button on the front of the printer. This button controls the functions of the next four buttons on the panel by switching the printer between Print mode and Menu Select mode. When in the Menu select mode, the MENU indicator lights, and the functions below the buttons are active. Any of the configuration settings can be changed while in this mode by the use of the GROUP, ITEM and SET buttons. The PT-4225/26 printers are shipped with a default configuration that should be compatible with most MBF installations and PRINTER-BASIC FOUR-4225,4226,4227,4228--------------FIB003 Pg002 applications. For more information on the default configuration and on. changing the printer configuration please see the PT-4225/4226 Matrix Printer User Guide M0193A.

This self-test will print out a single page. When completed the printer will stop and the SEL light will come on. The following is a sample of the printout that is produced by running this self-test: PT-4225/4226 DOT MATRIX PRINTER 2.2 RIPPLE TEST Holding down the TOF/QUIET button on the front panel while turning the printer on causes the printer to first print out the current printer firmware revision and then to start printing a ripple test pattern in PRINTER-BASIC FOUR-4225,4226,4227,4228--------------FIB003 Pg003 the current default print style selected on the printer. This printout will be 80 columns wide on the PT-4225 and 132 columns wide on the PT4226. To stop this self-test, simply press the MODE button on the front panel. The following is a sample of the printout produced by running this self-test: 2.3 SERIAL I/F DIAGNOSTIC TEST When setting up the default selections for these printers, there is an option under the SERIAL I/F OPTION group called - DIAGNOSTIC TEST. If this option is set to YES, then everytime the printer is selected (SEL light is on) the serial interface of the printer will be tested. This test requires the use of a test plug as detailed below: In the event that there is a need to run this test, the test plus can be made by using a DB-25P connector. These test plugs are not available thorough MBF. Once the diagnostic test option is selected and test plug is connected upon turning the printer on, the following steps will occur: 1. The serial program revision will be printed out. 2. Message "LOOP TEST" will be printed out. 3. Printer memory is checked and message "RAM=GOOD" is printed if memory check is correct, and message "RAM=BAD" is printed if memory check is not correct. 4. The printer outputs a low signal to the DTR, RTS and SSD signal lines. If one of these signal lines is high the message "I/F BAD" is printed. If these signals are all low, then the message "I/F GOOD" is printed. 5. The printer outputs a high signal to the DTR, RTS and SSD signal lines. If one of these signal lines is low the message "I/F BAD" is printed. If these signals are all high, then the message "I/F GOOD" is printed. 6. The printer then transmits character codes 20H to 7FH by the TD signal line and received by the RD signal line and stored in the printer message buffer. The characters that were stored in the message buffer are printed out. 7. Steps (1) through (6) are repeated until the printer is either deselected or turned off. Once this "Diagnostic Test" option has been selected, the only way to deselect it is to power the printer up while holding the MODE button in on the front panel. This will cause the printer to come up in the MENU selection mode. At this point, press the GROUP button until you have selected the SERIAL INTERFACE group. Next, press the ITEM button until you have selected the "DIAGNOSTIC TEST" option. Press the SET button to change from YES to NO. Press the MODE button, the SEL light will light and the printer is now ready for normal operation. The following is a sample of the printout that is produced by this test. PRINTER-BASIC FOUR-4225,4226,4227,4228--------------FIB003 Pg004 NOTE: This DIAGNOSTIC TEST will be printed out as if the printer is not reacting to 'CR' commands correctly. The test will printout the first message, issue a 'LF', print out the second message, issue a 'LF', etc... The resulting printout will be printed diagonally down the page. This is not an error, it is a function of the printer firmware. 3.0 MPx ADVANCED SERIES AND GPx MNEMONICS The following is a list of the supported mnemonics for the PT-4225/4226 on either an MPx or an ADVANCED SERIES system. Some of the mnemonics cannot be serviced because the printers lack the capability necessary to do so. Mnemonics that are not listed below will not be recognized and an ERROR 29 will be returned.

This PDF only supports two character mnemonics in order to match the functionality provided by the SPx and PCx systems. Listed below are the mnemonics that are recognized by this PDF. Some of the mnemonics cannot be serviced because the printers lack the capability necessary to do so. Mnemonics that are not listed below will not be recognized and an ERROR 29 will be returned. Mnemonic Meaning Comment '10' set 10 CPI '12' set 12 CPI '16' set 16 CPI '6L' set 6 LPI '8L' set 8 LPI @(x) position to col x @(x,y) position to col x, row y 'B1' select bin 1 ignored 'B2' select bin 2 ignored 'BG' enable error 29 'BO' begin output transparency 'BU' begin underlining 'CR' carriage return 'CS' clear screen ('FF') 'DP' set draft mode 'EG' disable error 29 'EL' end VFU loading 'EP' select double width 'ES' escape 'EU' end underlining 'FF' form feed 'LF' line feed 'NL' new line ('LF') 'OP' overprint 'PM' set plot mode ignored 'RB' ring bell ignored PRINTER-BASIC FOUR-4225,4226,4227,4228--------------FIB003 Pg006 'S1' slew to channel 1 emulated 'S2' slew to channel 2 emulated 'S3' slew to channel 3 emulated 'S4' slew to channel 4 emulated 'S5' slew to channel 5 emulated 'S6' slew to channel 6 emulated 'S7' slew to channel 7 emulated 'S8' slew to channel 8 emulated 'SB' set background 'SF' set foreground 'SL' start VFU load 'SP' set superscripting ignored 'SS' set subscripting ignored 'VT' verticle tab ('S6') 'WP' set letter quality mode 5.0 WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS 1. When using individual cut sheets or the Cut Sheet Feeder, the line spacing is not absolutely correct. Each line is approximately 6/10000 inch greater than the absolute line spacing which adds up to approximately 0.044 inch per page (8.5" X 11"). As a result, when using the above mentioned paper, it is not possible to print on line 6 6 of a 66 line form at 6 LPI. The Set Fine Line Spacing (n/216") software command allows the user to set the line spacing. If the desired line spacing is 6 LPI, the value of n set with the command would be 36 (i.e.: 36/216 = 1/6 inch = 6 lines per inch). The workaround would be to send a value of n equal of 35 which is less than the required amount of 36. The resulting line spacing would be: 35/216 = 1/216 inch less than 1/6 inch. 2. When overprinting on the same line (carriage return with no line feed), in NLQ the printer performs a reverse line feed followed by forward line feed. This causes the vertical print registration to become offset slightly for the current line. A workaround for continuous forms is to use the optional pull tractor in conjunction with the push tractor. 3. When changing from Ready/Busy to X-ON/X-OFF protocol, the receive buffer does not change size (16K bytes to 2K bytes) until after the power has been cycled on the printer. 4. The IBM II characters in locations 03H - 06H have been replaced by MBF Extended Set characters. 5. The Double Width, One Line Only software command (OEH) terminates with an end of line wrap. 6. If compressed printing is selected via the operator panel (17 or 20 CPI), the software pitch commands will not override the selection. 7. The Horizontal and Vertical Tab setting software commands (ESC D and ESC B) must be terminated by a NUL (00H) character. 8. The Set Print Mode/CPI command (ESC I n) does not override pitch changes made by other software pitch commands or menu selection. A workaround is to send the Begin 10 CPI command (12H) prior to sending this command. PRINTER-BASIC FOUR-4225,4226,4227,4228--------------FIB003 Pg007 9. The Reverse Line Feed command (ESC ]) causes the Top of Form position to be offset by one line each time it is used. 10. If the Diagnostic Test Item in the Select Menu is set to "Yes", the test can only be exited by pressing the MODE switch while powering-on the printer and then resetting the Diagnostic Test Item to "No". 11. The PT-4225/26 printer is only supported as slave printers off the VT-4312/4313/4314 terminals. They are not supported on any earlier terminals as slave printers. 6.0 REFERENCE MANUALS M0193A - PT-4225/26 Matrix Printer User Guide M8217 - PT-4225/26 Matrix Printer Maintenance Manual M0192A - PT-4225/26 Matrix Printer Programmers Reference QA17-00025 PT-4225/26 Terminal Printer Service Plan ORIGINATOR: T.

The default settings for the PT-4227/4228 printers can be customized to meet specific applications by the use of the menu feature. This feature is activated by the use of the Mode button on the front of the printer. This button controls the functions of the next four buttons on the panel by switching the printer between Print mode and Menu Select mode. When in. the Menu select mode, the MENU indicator lights and the functions below the buttons are active. Any of the configuration settings can be changed while in this mode by the use of the GROUP, ITEM and SET buttons. The PT-4227/4228 printers are shipped with a default configuration that should be compatible with most MBF installations and applications. For more information on the default configuration and on changing the printer configuration please see the PT-4227/4228 Matrix Printer User Guide M0194. The following is a list of the default factory settings for these printer parameters. Please see the User Guide for additional information on the settings.

This self-test will print out a single page. When completed, the printer will stop and the SEL light will come on. The following type styles will be printed during the self-test. LQ-10CPI UTL-10CPI LQ-10CPI SUPER/SUBSCRIPT LQ-12CPI UTL-12CPI UTL-10CPI SUPER/SUBSCRIPT LQ-17CPI UTL-17CPI LQ-10CPI DOUBLE WIDTH/HEIGHT UTL-10CPI DOUBLE WIDTH/HEIGHT 2.2 RIPPLE TEST Holding down the TOF/QUIET button on the front panel while turning the printer on causes the printer to first print out the current printer firmware revision and then to start printing a ripple test pattern in the current default print style selected on the printer. This printout will be. 80 columns wide on the PT-4227 and 132 columns wide on the PT4228. To stop this self-test, simply press the MODE button on the front panel. PRINTER-BASIC FOUR-4225,4226,4227,4228--------------FIB004 Pg005 2.3 SERIAL I/F DIAGNOSTIC TEST When setting up the default selections for these printers, there is an option under the SERIAL I/F OPTION group called - DIAGNOSTIC TEST. If this option is set to YES, then everytime the printer is selected (SEL light is on) the serial interface of the printer will be tested. This test requires. the use of a test plug as detailed below. In the event that there is a need to run this test, the test plug can be made by using a DB-25P connector. These test plugs are not available through MBF. DB25P CONNECTOR ________________ | | | TD 2 | --- | | | | RD 3 | --- | | | RTS 4 | --- | | | | CTS 5 | --- | | | CD 8 | --- | | | | SSD 11 | --- | | | DTR 20 | --- | | | | DSR 6 | --- ----------------- Once the diagnostic test option is selected and test plug is connected upon turning the printer on, the following steps will occur: 1. The serial program revision will be printed out. 2. Message "LOOP TEST" will be printed out. 3. Printer memory is checked and message "RAM=GOOD" is printed if memory check is correct, and message "RAM=BAD" is printed if memory check is not correct. 4. The printer outputs a low signal to the DTR, RTS and SSD signal lines. If one of these signal lines is high, the message "I/F BAD" is printed. If these signals are all low, then the message "I/F GOOD" is printed. 5. The printer outputs a high signal to the DTR, RTS and SSD signal lines. If one of these signal lines is low, the message "I/F BAD" is printed. If these signals are all high, then the message "I/F GOOD" is printed. 6. The printer then transmits character codes 20H to 7FH by the TD signal line and received by the RD signal line and stored in the printer message buffer. The characters that were stored in the message buffer are printed out. 7. Steps (1) through (6) are repeated until the printer is either deselected or turned off. PRINTER-BASIC FOUR-4225,4226,4227,4228--------------FIB004 Pg006 Once this "Diagnostic Test" option has been selected, the only way to deselect it is to power the printer up while holding the MODE button in on the front panel. This will cause the printer to come up in the MENU selection mode. At this point, press the GROUP button until you have selected the SERIAL INTERFACE group. Next, press the ITEM button until you have selected the "DIAGNOSTIC TEST" option. Press the SET button to change from YES to NO. Press the MODE button, the SEL light will light and the printer is now ready for normal operation. The following is a sample of the printout that is produced by this test. SERIAL I/F F/W 02.00 LOOP TEST RAM=GOOD I/F=GOOD !"#$%&'()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@A BCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_ abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|}~ NOTE: This DIAGNOSTIC TEST will be printed out as if the printer is not reacting to 'CR' commands correctly. The test will printout the first message, issue a 'LF', print out the second message, issue a 'LF', etc... The resulting printout will be printed diagonally down the page. This is not an error, it is a function of the printer firmware. 3.0 MPx, ADVANCED SERIES AND GPx MNEMONICS The following is a list of the supported mnemonics for the PT-4227/4228 on either an MPx, ADVANCED SERIES and GPx system. Some of the mnemonics cannot be serviced because the printers lack the capability necessary to do so. Mnemonics that are not listed below will not be recognized and an ERROR 29 will be returned.

When using individual cut sheets or the Cut Sheet Feeder, the line spacing is not absolutely correct. Each line is approximately 6/10000 inch greater than the absolute line spacing which adds up to approximately 0.044 inch per page (8.5" X 11"). As a result, when using the above mentioned paper, it is not possible to print on line 66 of a 66 line form at 6 LPI. The Set Fine Line Spacing (n/180") software command allows the user to set the line spacing. If the desired line spacing is 6 LPI, the value of n set with the command would be 30 (i.e.: 30/180 = 1/6 inch = 6 lines per inch). The workaround would be to send a value of n equal to 29 which is less than the required amount of 30. The resulting line spacing would be: 29/180 = 1/180 inch less than 1/6 inch. Please refer to the PT-4227/4228 Programmers Reference Manual (M0191) for further information on the Set Fine Line Spacing command; page 2-28 for the IBM Proprinter Emulation and page 3-28 for the Epson Emulation. 2. When overprinting on the same line (carriage return with no line feed), in NLQ the printer performs a reverse line feed followed by forward line feed. This causes the vertical print registration to become offset slightly for the current line. PRINTER-BASIC FOUR-4225,4226,4227,4228--------------FIB004 Pg009 A workaround for continuous forms is to use the optional pull tractor in conjunction with the push tractor. 3. When changing from Ready/Busy to X-ON/X-OFF protocol, the receive buffer does not change size (16K bytes to 2K bytes) until after the power has been cycled on the printer. 4. The IBM II characters in locations 03H - 06H have been replaced by MBF Extended Set characters. 5. The Double Width, One Line Only software command (OEH) terminates with an end of line wrap. 6. If compressed printing is selected via the operator panel (17 or 20 CPI), the software pitch commands will not override the selection. 7. The Horizontal and Vertical Tab setting software commands (ESC D and ESC. B) must be terminated by a NUL (00H) character. 8. The Set Print Mode/CPI command (ESC I n) does not override pitch changes made by other software pitch commands or menu selection. A workaround is to send the Begin 10 CPI command (12H) prior to sending this command. 9. The Reverse Line Feed command (ESC ]) causes the Top of Form position to be offset by one line each time it is used. 10. If the Diagnostic Test Item in the Select Menu is set to "Yes", the test can only be exited by pressing the MODE switch while powering-on the printer and then resetting the Diagnostic Test Item to "No". 11. The PT-4227/4228 printer is only supported as slave printers off the DT-4312/4313/4314 terminals. They are not supported on any earlier terminals as slave printers. 6.0 REFERENCE MANUALS M0194 - PT-4227/4228 Matrix Printer User Guide M8218 - PT-4227/4228 Matrix Printer Maintenance Manual M0191 - PT-4227/4228 Matrix Printer Programmers Reference ORIGINATOR: Tony Kaczoroski PRINTER-BASIC FOUR-4225,4226,4227,4228--------------FIB004 Pg010 FIB 00005 03/20/91 *** 4225/26 Printer Stops & Menu Light Blinks *** SYMPTOM/TEXT: When printing long jobs the printing may stop for a few seconds or print unidirectional while the MENU light blinks.

To run without flow control errors the printers should be configured as 7 data bits, odd parity and 1 stop bit. CONFIGURING SPOOLED PRINTERS IN SCO UNIX To print spooled jobs on the printer running 7 data bits, odd parity and 1 stop bit, the spooler will have to be notified what parameters will have to be changed. To change parameters run 'sysadmsh': Select printers-->configure-->parameters the following screen will appear: Printer name [ ] Printer name in terminfo database [ ] Print wheels which can be mounted [ ] Alternate character set mappings [ ] Default initial settings length width [ ] cpi [ ] lpi [ ] stty [ ] [ ] [ ] At the printer name prompt enter the name of the printer as it appears in the UNIX spooler. An example name could be laser. Press to proceed down to the stty prompt. At this prompt any stty parameter can be entered. To set a printer to 7 data bits, odd parity and 1 stop bit, the following would be entered at the stty prompt: cs7 parenb parodd Press until the screen is exited and the lpadmin is executed by sysadmsh. The system will now attempt to communicate with the printer using 7 data bits, odd parity and 1 stop bit, WHEN GOING THROUGH THE SPOOLER. CONFIGURING NON-SPOOLED PRINTERS To configure a printer to communicate at 7 data bits, odd parity and 1 stop. bit /etc/inittab must be modified. /usr/ob/bin/setport is used to set the protocol of the port to which the printer is connected. 'setport' has default settings of 9600 baud, 7 data bits, even parity and 1 stop bit. When setport is used, only the parameters that need to be changed have to be used with the command. To use setport make the following changes: vi /etc/inittab Find the line which corresponds to the port to which the printer is connected. As an example use ttya08. The line will appear as follows: PRINTER-BASIC FOUR-4225,4226,4227,4228--------------FIB007 Pg001 a08:23:off:/etc/getty /dev/ttya08 mai9600 The line should be changed to: a08:23:respawn:/usr/ob/bin/setport ttya08 cs7 parodd The port is now ready to communicate at 7 data bits, odd parity and 1 stop bit.

ORIGINATOR: Mike Ramunni/ Norm Jones PRINTER-BASIC FOUR-4225,4226,4227,4228--------------FIB008 Pg004 FIB 00009 MAI COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL 12/27/95 *** 4225/4226 Rev C printer parts cross reference *** This is a supplemental update to the MAI PT-4225/4226 Printer Maintenance Manual Part Number 008217-002. This update is for MAI Systems Field Service Personnel only and contains cross reference to MAI Systems MM part numbers and additional reference numbers not available in the Okidata ML320/321 Maintenance Manual. PRINTER REVISION LEVEL - Revision 'C' printers can be identified by the fourth digit in the printers serial number found on the printer ID label located on the rear Main Chassis Assembly of the printer. This parts breakdown pertains to MAI customized versions of the Okidata 320 and 321 printers. COMMONALITY TO OTHER PRINTERS - MAI PT-4225 & 4226 and Okidata 320 & 321 REV 'C' printers except for the following hardware differences: 1) Cabinet color - MAI printers have light gray color covers instead of Okidata putty covers. 2) RS-232 LXHI Serial I/F PCBA - All PT-4225/26s were sold with an RS232 PCBA installed as standard equipment and with a Q8 prom installed. The R-S232 Serial I/F is an option on Okidata 320 & 321 printers and if installed should not have a Q8 prom. 3) firmware - MAI printers have customized firmware: Q8 and Q13 that adds additional Menu options and character sets and causes the printer to default to MAI recommended factory settings. PT-4225 & 26 have a Q8 prom (MM399306) installed on the RS-232 LXHI Serial I/F PCBA with jumper set SP1 set to 'A'. Q8 holds the MBF International character set. PT-4225 - Q13 prom is (MM399304) on Main Control LXMC-3 PCBA PT-4226 - Q13 prom is (MM399305) on Main Control LXMC-3 PCBA SELF TESTS - Holding down the LINE FEED switch while powering the printer ON will enable an 80 column wide, 11 inch long Font Print Style test. The first line of the printout lists; printer model number, printer emulation, firmware revision level and part number. Holding down the QUIET switch while powering the printer ON enables an 80 column wide (PT-4225) or a 136 column wide (PT-4226) ASCII slant pattern test that runs continuously. The font used in the ASCII slant pattern is dependent on the Print Mode selected in the printer setup menu. Pressing the MODE switch will end the test. The first line of this self test printout also lists the printers firmware description. EXAMPLE: MBF 4225 EI A F/W 04.02 4YR4077-1334G1 = (PT-4225 W/EPSON/IBM emulation Rev level 4.02). MBF 4226 EI A F/W 04.02 4YR4077-1335G1 = (PT-4226 W/EPSON/IBM emulation Rev level 4.02).
