About This Manual This manual applies to the MVP–Series of Printronix printers; the standard MVP, L150, 150B and L150B. Explanations and descriptions that refer to standard MVP or MVP–Series printers apply to all four printers in the series. Chapters that address configuring and programming issues distinguish between the MVP/L150 and 150B/L150B. This is due to the different software pertaining to each printer. In all other areas, the four printer are similar. How to Locate Information • Use the

Switches, Keys, Indicators and Display Messages Switches, indicators and switch positions on the printer are uppercase. For example: Press and release the RDY switch. Messages that appear on the control panel display are printed in initial capital letters and set off with quotation marks (except for conjunctions, which are all lowercase). For example: “Save Config” appears on the message display. Overview 1–3

Introduction The MVP–Series printers are line matrix printers that provide high quality printing and graphics by printing at 200 lines–per–minute (lpm) and plotting at 18.7 lpm in five different print modes. They offer features such as dot matrix flexibility, plug–in PROMs that allow alternate character sets to substitute for the standard set and the capability of printing on a wide variety of multi–part forms, labels and other business forms. All MVP–Series printers have a digital panel and s

L150 Printers In addition to the standard features and functions listed in “MVP Printers,” the L150 printers print approximately a 0.017 inch diameter dot that assures printed bar codes will meet demanding size and quality specifications. L150 printers also have various print modes that match dot density and resolution to specific bar code applications: • MODE 2 prints text at a character pitch of 10 cpi for data processing applications. • MODE 4 provides a plot density designed for bar codes su

Optional Features The following are some of the various optional features offered to extend the versatility of MVP–Series printers: Special and Custom Character Sets 96 character ASCII; 64 character, OCR full width; EBCDIC; Block characters; and Custom characters. Standard MVP Density Option Permits a four percent increase in MVP vertical dot density. Long Lines Interface Enables operation with a Dataproducts 2230 or 2260, differential drive, balanced interface type controller. The interface can

Character Formation The MVP–Series printers generate characters by accumulating groups of dots in matrices. Dot impressions are made by an assembly of 17 hammers installed on an oscillating shuttle that impact the paper through a moving ink ribbon. Synchronized horizontal shuttle movement and vertical paper advancement produce overlapping dots that form solid characters (Figure 1–1). Figure 1–1. Typical Character Formation 1–8 Overview

Line Matrix Printing Unlike moving–head serial dot matrix printers, the MVP–Series printers create graphics and characters by printing an entire dot row at one time. Dots are printed in both directions of shuttle travel, at a printer stroke length of .2” to print through two character positions. By printing a row of dots, dot matrix line printers achieve higher print duty cycles than moving head dot matrix (serial) printers. During each sweep of the shuttle, hammers are activated to print dots a

Print Rate The print rate, in lines per minute (lpm), is a function of the number of dot rows required to produce the character line regardless of the number of characters in the line. For example, more dot rows are required to print lowercase characters with descenders; consequently, those characters take longer to print. Table 1–1 shows the print rate according to the type of character printed and print mode. Complete printing specifications are provided in Appendix C. Table 1–1. Print Rate P
