nSetting print start position

When you want to align the print start position, you can set it by the micro-feed operation with the control panel, instead of turning the platen knob manually.

1.Set the Off Line mode by pressing the On Line key.

2.While holding down the On Line key, press one of the following keys.

Paper Feed key - Forward micro-feed TOF key - Reverse micro-feed

3.When you can set the print start position, release the Paper Feed key or the TOF key first, then release the On Line key.

When you turn on the printer, the top of form is automat- ically set to the current position. If you want to change the position, you can reset it by the following procedures.

2.While holding the Print Pitch key, press the TOF key. Your printer acknowledges the new top of form with the sound of deep.

As you’ll learn in Chapter 5, you can set the left and right margins with the control codes. In addition, you can set them *manually just like a typewriter by the following procedures.

2.While holding the Mode key, press one of the following keys.

TOF key - Left margin set

3.While holding the two keys, the print head moves across the page step-by-step.

4.When the print head goes to the position where you want to set margin, release the two keys. So the printer acknowledges the margin with the sound of beep.
