Press the button until the light appears

 

 

next to the desired pitch. (Your software

 

 

setting overrides this setting.)

 

Copy

Lets you print the document darker. This

 

 

button is available in SuperDraft and Draft

 

 

mode only and is disabled if you use the

 

 

status monitor utility and select a paper

 

 

number from 1 to 8.

 

TOF

Lets you enter and exit the top-of-form

4

(Top of Form)

mode to adjust the top-of-form position.

 

This button is available when the top

 

 

 

 

cover is open.

 

 

If your printing begins too high or low on

 

 

the page, you can reset the top-of-form

 

 

position by entering top-of-form mode

 

 

and using micro feed to adjust the

 

 

position. The printer remembers this new

 

 

top-of-form position even after it is turned

 

 

off, reset, or initialized. Also, the printer

 

 

remembers separate top-of-form positions

 

 

for the front and rear tractors.

 

 

See “Adjusting the top-of-form position”

 

 

in Chapter 3.

 

Tear Off

Feeds the paper to the printer’s tear-off

 

 

edge and puts the printer in tear-off mode.

 

If the perforation on your paper does not align exactly with the printer’s tear-off edge, use the Micro Feed buttons to adjust the tear-off position. See “Adjusting the tear-off position” in Chapter 3.
