t e a r - o f f

A paper feed operation that automatically feeds the perforation of

continuous paper to the tear-off edge and then feeds the paper back to the

loading position.

tear-off position

The position the printer feeds the paper to at the end of print job. You can

change the position in the default-setting mode so that the paper's

perforation meets the printer's tear-off edge or passes approximately 8

centimeters (3 inches) beyond the edge.

top-of-form

The position on the paper that the printer recognizes as the first printable

line. This is the default top-margin position.

more precise vertical alignment than bidirectional printing.

user-defined characters

Characters that are defined and stored in the printer by the user. Also called downloaded characters.
