6.Lower the forms thickness lever. Set it to match the paper thickness. The A-B-C scale corresponds approximately to 1-, 3-, and 6-part paper thickness. Adjust until you have the desired print quality.

NOTE: Do not set the forms thickness lever too tightly; excessive friction can cause paper jams, ribbon jams with potential for ribbon damage, smeared ink, or wavy print.

IMPORTANT The forms thickness lever must be closed; otherwise, there will be no paper movement when you press SET TOF.

7.Press SET TOF. The top-of-form position that you have set moves down to the print position.

8.Go on to the next procedure to run a simple printer test.
