Paper Handling
Note:
Always make sure there is at least one more sheet than required;
continuous paper may not feed properly if it is not fed through the
sprockets.
c
Caution:
❏
Use the knob on the right side of the printer only to clear
paper jams when the printer is off. Otherwise, you may
damage the printer or cause it to lose the top-of-form position.
❏
Do not open the printer cover while paper is being fed;
otherwise you cannot load the paper correctly.
Note:
If the first line on your page appears too high or low, you can change its
position by using the Micro Adjust function as described in “Adjusting
the top-of-form position” on page 1-39.
Using the tear-off function
You can use the tear-off function to advance your continuous
paper to the printer’s tear-off edge when you finish printing. You
can then easily tear off the printed sheets. When you resume
printing, the printer automatically feeds the paper back to the
top-of-form position so that you can save the paper normally lost
between documents.
You can use the tear-off function in two ways: manually by
pressing the printer’s Tear Off/Special Paper button or
automatically by turning on auto tear-off mode. The Tear
Off/Special Paper lights flash when the paper is in the tear-off
position.
If the perforation between pages is not aligned with the tear-off
edge, you can adjust the position of the perforation using the
Micro Adjust function. See “Adjusting the tear-off position” on
page 1-37 for more information.
