Short tear-off function

The short-tear-off function is handy when using fanfold paper. It ejects the papers0 that the perforation is just above the transparent cover, allowing you tear it off without having to open up the printer. It then reverses the paper feed after you have tom off the paper, thereby starting printing at the top of the next form. This feature is especially useful if you are using pre-printed stationery (such as invoices, etc), which will not be printed all together.

To use the short tear-off function, press the :-ONJWbutton when the printer is on-line, and hold it down for a few seconds. When you release the button, the printer will go off-line, and the paper will move up a few inches, allowing you to tear off the form.

To return the paper to its previous position, press the i ONL!!E~button once again. When you release the button, the printer will return to its on-line status, and the paper will be fed backwards, with the print head aligned with the top of the next form.
