UNLOAD / FORM

If paper is currently loaded (no paper out

SELECT

condition exists), this button unloads the paper

 

and places the top edge of the paper in the

 

tractors in the base of the unit. This allows you to

 

change the paper easily. A paper out condition is

 

displayed to indicate that the paper was unloaded

 

successfully.

 

The printer will attempt to unload up to 36

 

inches of paper. If the top edge of the paper is

 

not found, paper motion will stop and “Too

 

Much Paper” will be displayed on the LCD

 

display. Normally, previous pages should be torn

 

off before you press UNLOAD. It is

 

recommended that you not use this method to

 

unload more than the current form.

 

When no paper or form is currently loaded, this

 

button selects one of ten preset form setups. In

 

the FormsPro 4503se, this may also select a

 

different set of tractors to be used the next time

 

you press the LOAD button.

 

The printer will not allow you to change the form

 

during printing. If you press the FORM SELECT

 

button while there is still a line to print, the button

 

press is rejected, the bell sounds, and the

 

message “Finish Printing!” flashes on

 

the LCD display. If this happens, you should

 

place the printer back on-line, allow the form to

 

finish printing, and then place the printer off-line

 

and select the desired new form. If you press

 

and hold this button at power-up/reset on the

 

FormsPro 4503se, and paper has not been

 

loaded, the tractor shuttle moves all the way

 

forward to its parked position.

 

Note: The tractor shuttle should always be

 

parked and secured whenever the printer is

 

being transported.
