SOURCE: Error 058 Shuttle Jam on an IBM 6400 Matrix printer

Normal 0 I suggest you get a sheet of Card Stock (Heavy paper) and place it in the feed way. Then press the print button applying a slight amount of pressure on the Card Stock so it will feed through the printer. The reason for this is in some cases I have been able to clear the paper track of debris that was deposited there over time.
Worth a try, as I have fixed a number of printers this way, saving costly repairs.
Hope this helps. Bud

SOURCE: how do you change the IP address on an IBM 6400

The IP address is usually assigned by your router using DHCP. I assume you are trying to print to the printer from your PC and it won't go. Go into your router using IE and look for the IP address assigned to the printer and write it down. Exit IE.

Next, go into Control Panel>Printers and choose the IBM printer. Go to Properties and choose Configure Port. Enter the correct IP address, hit apply and exit. You should be able to print to the IBM now.

Try running couple of these test, to see if it might be another issue.
It should be printing these test at 1500 Line Per Minute... ?
1500LPM is at 10CPI if you have (Font size: 6, 8, 12, 14) it will make a difference.
Change your driver to Generic/Text, rerun your report... any difference?

IBM 6400 Matrix Printer is printing twice over a previous line it seem on to happen once or twice per page of text there seems to be no issue with the tractor feed no drag on the paper source and the test...

Might be your gap is set to high. try moving the right lever from A to B for example and see if it clears it out. Also might be your parallelism, you will find to hex screws on the right and left of the platen assy that u can adjust. This will balance out the shuttle if one side is printing to light and another is printing to dark. Rory 708-597-4222
