FORM FEED Switch (REPRINT Switch)
The FORM FEED switch works in two ways according to the DATA lamp
status.
Form Feed
When the printer is off-line and there is data remaining in the printer
memory, the DATA lamp comes on. Pressing the FORM FEED switch
executes a form feed and prints out the remaining data. The display may
look as follows:
01 PRINT 001P T1
If you set the number of copies with the COPY switch and press the FORM
FEED switch during copy printing, the printer suspends the form feed
operation and the display shows the following message:
07 FF PAUSE
Pressing the SEL switch again resumes the form feed operation.
When no data remains in the printer memory and you press the FORM
FEED switch, the printer ignores this switch operation and the display
shows the following message:
No Data !!!
✒ Note
If you want the printer to print out the remaining data automatically, you can
set the auto form feed function with the MODE switch. See “AUTO
FORMFEED” in Chapter 4.
Reprint Function
You can reprint the same page of data without sending it from the computer
again. When you press the FORM FEED switch with the DATA lamp off,
the printer reprints the same page. You can use this function in order to
recover printing when a paper jam has occurred.
After printing is finished, set the printer off-line and press the FORM FEED
switch once, so that the printer prints the last page of data.
