Setting the top of form position
Finally so that the printer does not print on the perforations, you
need to establish a top of form position. The top of form position is the
position of the paper when the power is turned on. This position is also
reset whenever software initializes the printer or sets the page length.
Setting the top of form position is a simple threestep process:
1. See that the printer is turned off.
2. Use the paper feed knob to advance the paper until the first row of
perforations is just above the paper bail as shown in Figure 2-6.
3. Turn the printer on.
The printer remembers this position and keeps track of how far the
paper has been advanced. This way when you want to move to the top
of a new page, it always knows how far to advance the paper.
For some software, it is more convenient to set the top of form at the
top of the print head. Try this if the setting above the paper bail does
not work correctly with your software.
