You can leave the short tear-off feature turned on (DIP switch
1-5 off)
even when you are using single sheets. When you move the paper release
lever to the single sheet position, short tear-off is disabled.
Printing on Special Paper
In addition to using single sheets and continuous paper, your printer can
also print on a wide variety of paper types, including multi-part forms
and labels. You can even feed envelopes, either manually or with the
optional cut sheet feeder. Before printing on these special types of paper,
however, you need to adjust the paper thickness setting.
The paper thickness lever
To accommodate various thicknesses of paper, the FX printer is equipped
with a paper thickness lever that can be set to eight positions. These
positions are identified by a scale on the printer frame next to the lever.
Before changing the paper thickness setting, first make sure the power is
off and then remove the printer cover.
WARNING: If you’ve been using the printer just before
opening the printer cover, be careful not to touch the print
head
because
it may be hot.
Select the paper thickness you want according to the figure below. For
normal use, the lever should always be set to position 2 on the scale.
