Form Feed Mode:
This setting affects what the printer will do in response to a Form Feed command
from any source. Different modes are appropriate depending upon the type of
paper being used.

upon the ‘Form Length’ and/or ‘Paper Size’ settings). It advances a new sheet to the
printing position, and attempts to eject it at an appropriate distance based upon the

‘End of Page’ mode makes no assumptions about page length, and will continue to
feed the paper forward to a maximum page length of 14” or until the Paper Sensor
detects that no paper remains in the input of the printer. Note that either the end of a
cut sheet, or the black mark printed on the back of certain roll and perforated paper,
will be detected as the end of a page.
‘No Feed’ mode ignores all Form Feed commands, and does not advance the paper
after printing. This can be of particular help to roll paper users who are printing only
partial pages and do not wish to waste additional paper at the end of each document.
The page may be manually advanced using the Main Switch.

for printing.
If Auto-On is set to ‘Enabled’, the printer will power up as soon as an external
