Setting Top–Of–Form

Top–of–form determines where the first line of print will appear and is set when paper is loaded. Typi- cally, the first line of print is set approximately one–half inch below the paper perforation unless spe- cific application requirements dictate otherwise.

Once top–of–form has been set, press and hold the PAPER ADV switch to advance to the top of the next form. Unless otherwise configured, the printer assumes 11–inch length paper is used. For alter- nate length forms, refer to Setting Forms Length on page 2–15.
