Epson FX-2190 raw data printing
Posted: 2012/01/26 21:49:39
Can anybody help me to resolve a printing problem with EPSON FX-2190 ? I try to print raw data on it but I got a diagnostic page instead.
I tried to print on two printers: EPSON LX-300+II and EPSON FX-2190
I hooked up them to CentOS 6.0 server through an Ethernet Print-Server where Raw Data Printing is Enabled. http://ca.startech.com/Networking-IO/Print/1-Port-Parallel-10100-Mbps-Print-Server~PM1115P
I was able to print when I used Epson PRINTER, 9-pin MODEL, Epson 9-pin Series [en] DRIVERS, on both printers but it printed slow and seems like it is in a graphical mode and it printed every line twice.
Also, banners and page number are printing on bottom of the page.
When I use Generic PRINTER, raw Queue MODEL, Generic Raw Queue [en] DRIVER it works on Epson LX-300+II but does not work on Epson FX-2190 (instead of simple text file some diagnostic page is printing, see screen shots http://www.4shared.com/photo/fullsize/6zuUbWbW/epson.html ):
A file I tried to print was as simple as this:
-------------
1111111111
22222222222222222
33333333333333
4444444444444
=============
I tried different options and played with different drivers types but could not make it working.
Maybe anybody can suggest anything or advice something what I can do, a direction...
