Selecting Media

Cut Sheet Paper

1.Select “Fixed Page” mode.

2.Select the appropriate paper size (Letter, A4, or Legal).

3.In Windows Vista / XP / 2000 Professional, set the Paper Type to “Cutsheet”.

Non-Perforated Roll Paper

To use roll paper, you must select from either fixed page length using “Fixed Page Mode” or variable page length using the “No Feed Mode” and selecting a page eject length using the “No Feed Mode Extra Feed” option.

When using Windows Vista / XP / 2000 Professional, for each case below, be sure to set the Paper Type to “Roll”.

A. Variable Length Forms (saves paper)

1.Select No Feed Mode.

2.Set the value of the No Feed Mode Extra Feed to the amount of margin you wish to have between the final printed line and the end of the document. For example, 200 lines equal 1 inch. On a PocketJet 3, this allows paper advancement from the print head area inside the printer to a position outside the printer. This provides for a “tear-off” position from a continuous roll feed that will include the entire printed image.

3.The Paper Size selected does not affect this mode except to provide a maximum number of lines per page.

B.Infinite Length Forms (such as geological recordings or polygraph charts) –

(Only available in Windows Vista / XP / 2000 Professional drivers)

1.Select No Feed Mode.

2.Select “Infinite Paper Size”.

3.Set the value of the No Feed Mode Extra Feed to the desired length.

4.Check to be sure that the Top/Bottom margins within your application software are set to zero (0).

C.Fixed Page Length

1.Select Fixed Page Mode.

2.If the length corresponds to one of the pre-defined paper sizes (Letter, Legal, or A4), select the desired paper size from the Advanced Features Setup using the Control Panel method instead of the application software’s Print Setup in order to make it permanent.
