Tearing Off the Printed Pages

After you finish printing, you can use the tear-off feature to advance continuous paper on the push tractor to the tear-off edge of the printer. You can then easily tear off printed sheets. When you resume printing, the printer automatically feeds paper back to the loading position.

This feature lets you save paper that would normally be lost between documents.

You can use the tear-off feature in two ways: by turning on DIP switch 3-8 to select automatic tear-off mode, or by pressing the TEAR OFF button on the control panel.

If the perforation between pages is not aligned with the tear-off edge, you can adjust the tear-off position using the micro-feed feature. The printer remembers this new tear-off position.

Caution:

Never use the fear-offfeature to reverse feed labels, when the optional pull tractor is installed, or when using the paper memory feature described in Chapter 3.

Tear-off mode

When you select tear-off mode with DIP switch 3-8, the printer automatically advances continuous paper to the tear-off position when you finish printing.
