Note:
The printing position (based on the top-of-form position) is controlled
by your software. To change the print position, adjust your software’s
print settings. Use the following procedure only if your software does
not allow print position adjustment.
Adjusting the top-of-form position
The top-of-form position is the position to which the printer feeds
the paper when it loads it or performs a form feed. This position
is important because it determines where the printing begins on
each page. If the printing is too high or low on the page, you can
adjust the top-of-form position either permanently or temporarily
depending on how you use the Top of Form button.
When you want to permanently change the top-of-form
position, you enter the top-of-form mode using the Top of
Form control panel button. The printer remembers the new
top-of-form position even after the printer is turned off, reset,
or initialized. (The printer remembers separate top-of-form
positions for the front and rear tractors.)
When you want to temporarily change the top-of-form
position, you adjust the position using the Micro Feed
buttons during pause status without entering top-of-form
mode. The printer remembers the temporary top-of-form
position until the next time you load paper, switch tractors,
or turn off the printer.
You can set the top-of-form position from 4.2 mm (0.17 inch) to
33.9 mm (1.33 inch) below the top edge of the paper. The factory
setting is 8.5 mm (0.33 inch).
Follow the steps below to reset (permanently change) the
top-of-form position.
