the paper to tear-off position, you must press the TEAR OFF key.
The “Tear” parameter can be set to automatic mode. In this case the paper is transported
after a certain duration of time (1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 seconds) automatically to the tear-off posi-
tion if the printer does not receive data.
When the printer receives the next print request, the paper moves automatically from the
tear-off position to the previous position.
