Top of Form (TOF)
Important!
If you turn the platen knob when the printer is on, the Top of Form misaligns. Always shut the printer off before turning the platen knob!
Note: The factory default setting for the Top of Form (where the printing should begin) is 1" down from the top of the page.
Top of Form sets the print start position for the printer. It is adjustable in increments of 1/180 of an inch. The amount of adjustment is limited to avoid paper jams.
The first line prints at the red line of the plastic paper shield (1) on the printhead.
