After you have the paper at the position you want, hold down ON LINE and press PAPER FEED to make the current print head position the new auto load position. The printer will beep twice to indicate that the new auto load position is set.

To clear the new auto load position and return to the one that you set previously (using the above procedure), press ON LINE. To clear the currently set auto load position and return to the position specified by the EDS Mode (page 29), hold down ON LINE and press FONT.

Note:

The auto load position you set remains in effect until you turn the printer off. If you want to save the auto load position in memory, press PITCH instead of PAPER FEED while holding down ON LINE in the above step.
