Using the Tear Off/Bin button

Whether or not the printer is in auto tear-off mode, you can use the Tear Off/Bin button to advance continuous paper to the tear-off position by following the steps below:

1.Make sure printing has finished. Then press the Tear Off/Bin button until the two lights on the control panel start flashing. The printer advances the paper to the tear-off edge.

2.Tear off all printed pages. If the perforation is not aligned with the tear-off edge, adjust the tear-off position using the micro adjust feature. See “Micro Adjust,” earlier in this chapter.

3.When you resume printing the printer feeds the paper back to the loading position and begins printing. (You can also manually feed the paper back to the loading position by pressing the Tear Off /Bin button.)

2.Hold down the Pause button while you turn on the printer. The instructions for adjusting Bid alignment are printed, along with the first set of alignment patterns.

3.Follow the instructions on the printout.4.After completing Bid adjustment, turn off the printer.
