Paper Handling

ProblemSolution

Continuous paper does not feed properly (continued).

Regular gaps occur in the printout.

Skip over perforation does not function.

Skip over perforation is set, but the perforation does not fall in the center of the skip.

The paper dimensions may exceed the specified limits. Use only paper sizes that are within the specified range. Your printer can print on continuous multi-part forms consisting of 1 original and 2 copies. Refer to 2-25, 8-4.

Skip over perforation may be interfering with your application program settings. Set DIP switch 2-3 to OFF. If your program allows you to use control codes, you can instead use ESC 0 to cancel skip over perforation. Refer to 3-10, 9-14.

You may not have turned off the power after setting DIP switch 2-3 to ON. To make new DIP switch settings effective, turn the power off, then on again. Refer to 3-6.

The page length for one page of continuous paper may be set incorrectly. Set DIP switch 2-1 or use control codes ESC C or ESC C 0 to set the page length correctly.
