Are the computer and the PC-50

linked with the right cable?

The type of cable you need is determined by your computer and the software you

are using. Even if the computer is the same, running different software may require

a different cable. Use the cable specified in your software.

Is the cable making a secure connec-

tion?

Connect securely. (See “3 Set-up and Connections” .)

Connection cable

Is the OS set up correctly? Check the following items:

• Output port selection • Output device selection

• Output port open • Communication parameters

• Other settings

Check the OS user’s manual and set it up correctly.

Are the application software settings

correct?

Check the following items:

• Output device specifications (select a device name that matches the instruc-

tion system. If the wrong device is selected an incorrect instruction may be

output, resulting in an error).

• Communication parameters • Other settings

Check the software user’s manual and set it up correctly.

Are the settings for the driver software

correct?

If you are using driver software for output on the PC-50, then make the settings for

the correct driver in the computer. Select the PC-50 as the output device.

Clean, attractive printing is impossible

11 What to Do If...

Especially when using a single-color ribbon, faint soiling is seen in areas where

there is no printing. When this occurs, use alcohol to wipe away soiling on the

sheet immediately after printing.

Is there faint soiling around printed areas?

Clean the printing head (see “10 Care and Maintenance”).Is the printing head dirty?

If cleaning will not improve the printing quality, the printing head might

reach to the end of its life.

Contact your dealer for replacement of the printing head.

NOTICE

Is the surface of the platen dirty or

scratched?

Clean the platen (see “10 Care and Maintenance”).

Is the material dirty? Remove superficial soiling, then load the material.

Clean, attractive printing is not possible if the material is damaged or warped.

Use care to keep materials from being damaged while in storage.

Is the material damaged?

Has the material been sufficiently accli-

mated before use?

The material may shrink or expand due to absorption of moisture in the air. If

such shrinking or expansion occurs during printing, the printed pattern may be

misaligned.

Pull out the amount of roll material to be used, and allow to stand for 30 minutes

to an hour.

The amount of time required for acclimation varies according to the type of

material.

Is the cleaning pad free of dust or dam-

age?

A dusty or damaged cleaning pad may destroy the printing head. Gently wipe

away any adhering dust or grime.

If the cleaning pad is damaged by a blade or the like, please contact your

authorized Roland DG Corp. dealer or service center. (This pad replacement is a

charged service.)
