Initial configuration must be done for the newly supplied Epson PLQ20 model passbook printers to work. Without doing the configuration the printer will not even print the test page. So here are the steps that needs to be followed for configuriing the printer




  • Turn on the printer holding F1 and F2 buttons.
  • Insert an A4 size paper to the printer it will print the default language
  • Press F2 to confirm and F1 in case you need to change (The default language will be underlined)
  • The printer will ask you whether to print default settings or not, Press F1 to skip
  • Now it will show Common settings press F2 for Software settings and then press F1
  • Each settings will be displayed. Press F1 until it shows SOFTWARE
  • By default the softare will be of  EPSON press F2 to change it to IBM PPDS
  • After you see IBM PPDS press F1 again to show next settings
  • Now turn off the printer 

The printer will work fine now. For printing passbooks you need to configure PLQ20 printer in IBM generic graphics 9 pin wide driver.

    Our printer is giving trouble... When we give print.. It's taking the passbook in and sending it out without taking the passbook inside fully... I have seen what's printing option also... In it every thing is OK... AND all the time the offline light is on...
