Setting the top of form position

Finally you need to establish a top of form position so that the printer does not print on the perforations. The top of form position is the position of the paper when the power is turned on. This position is also reset whenever a program initializes the printer or sets the page length.

Setting the top of form position is a simple three-step process:1.See that the printer is turned off.

2.Use the paper feed knob to advance the paper until the first row of perforations is just above the paper bail as shown in Figure 3-6.

3.Turn the printer on.

The printer remembers this position and keeps track of how far the paper has been advanced. This way when you want to move to the top of a new page, it always knows how far to advance the paper.

For some programs, it is more convenient to set the top of form at the top of the print head. Try this if the setting above the paper bail does not work correctly with your program.
