24Operator Manual, Top of Form Nubbin | Tally Genicom 2900 guide

Standard Printing Mode

Fine-tuning the Column Alignment can be done in two ways:

(1)Rotate the Horizontal Vernier Wheel, which is located on the right end of the shaft on which the tractors ride. Depending upon the direction the paper needs to move, you will rotate the wheel either upwards or downwards.

(2)Use the Control Panel. Go Offline, choose Menu, then use the arrow keys to get to the Operator Menu. Press Enter. Use the arrow keys to get to Forms. Press Enter. Use the arrow keys to get to Horz Adjust. Press Enter. Use the arrow keys to increase or decrease the number that appears in the lower right of the LCD. This will shift the position of Column 1.

Step 7.

Set the Top of the Form (TOF). This is done from the Control Panel. If the printer is not on, turn it on now. If necessary, press the Online key until “Offline” is displayed. Use the up or down arrow keys to move the perforation line on the paper so that it is aligned with the nubbin on the tractor door. Once the paper is positioned, press the TOF key. The paper will move downward to the “ready to print” position and the correct print gap will be set based on the form thickness.
