zPaper saving functions

You can set the following functions to save paper by setting the MSW8-3 to 8-5 memory switches.

Delete top margin

The printer back feeds when printing starts to eliminate the top margin from the paper.

Set the amount of back feed.

Line gap reduction

The distance between lines at line feed is automatically reduced. Select the percent of reduction.

Text reduction Vertical/horizontal Size is reduced.

Set a combination of reduction ratios vertically and horizontally.

CAUTION

„If the “Delete top margin” function is used the partially cut printouts must be removed after printing. If the partially cut paper is back fed it may jam and cause trouble.

„The following precautions are needed for “Text reduction mode”.

Text that is reduced in size is harder to read than regular text.

With horizontal reduction the print range is also reduced, so the number of lines does not change. You must be careful of the print range when using narrow paper.

Barcodes cannot be used. It may not be possible to read barcodes if they are printed.
