PAPER HANDLING

NOTE

If the bottom perforation of your paper is not positioned at the tear-off edge, the length of your paper may not be speci- fied correctly in your software or the printer setup mode.

Check that the paper length is specified correctly. For information on specifying page length using setup mode, see Chapter 5.

2. Tear the paper off at the perforation.

FEEDING AND POSITIONING PAPER

Tearing off continuous forms	Paper Handling

3.Press any button to retract the forms back to the top-of-form position.

Line Feed/Form Feed

Use the line feed/form feed function to move paper forward. This function is valid when the printer is online or offline. Pressing and holding down the LF/FF button feeds one sheet of paper. Pressing the LF/FF button once advances the paper one line (do not hold the button more than three seconds).

The printer does not allow you to execute “reverse” form or line feeds from the control panel. To feed paper backward, manually rotate the platen knob. Remember that the top-of-form will slip from the original setting.
