Changing Forms/Tractor Paths
As mentioned above, the FormsMaster 8000 series printers have ten complete sets of forms
parameters. These different parameters, or forms, may be selected either from the front panel or with
escape sequences. In the FormsMaster 8003, selecting a different form may also select a different
tractor path. The tractor path is one of the parameters which may be set for each of the ten forms in the
forms menu using Setup as described in the FormsMaster 8000 Series Operator's Manual.
Escape sequences for loading forms are only available in the Epson and Printek emulations. In either
chapter refer to the “Load Form” escape sequence in the “Forms and Tractors” section.
If you are using an emulation other than Epson or Printek, you may temporarily change emulations,
load the new form, and then return to the previous emulation. An example of this may be found in the
“Emulations” section at the end of each of the emulation chapters.
