Epson LQ-400

The Epson LQ-400 24 pin dot matrix printer was introduced to replace the LQ-800. Although it had an identical specification to the LQ-800 it had been reduced in price and was now coloured in Epson's new grey livery. The printer has two sets of DIP (Dual In-line Package) switches located below a cover at the top right-hand rear of the printer. These switches control certain printer functions and default settings, the details of which are listed below.
