Epson Printer DIP Switch Settings

Epson Printer DIP Switch Settings

There are a few situations where a customer will need to change the DIP switch settings on a printer. The most common is when changing interface cards. The DIP switch settings on an Epson printer are typically located on the bottom of the printer, underneath a panel secured by one screw.

When this panel is unscrewed, two switch banks, labeled DSW1 and DSW2, are revealed on the circuit board. These are shown below.

Example is an Epson TM-U220, but most Epson printers will look similar.

The DIP switch settings for Epson printers are as follows:

TM-T88IV, V – Serial
DSW1: 7 on and all others off
DSW2: all off

TM-T88IV, V- USB, Ethernet, Parallel
DSW1: all off
DSW2: 8 on and all others off

TM-U220B – Serial
DSW1: all off
DSW2: 2 on and all others off

TM-U220B - USB, Ethernet, Parallel
DSW1: all off
DSW2: 2 and 4 on and all others off
