Input buffer
The input buffer stores data sent from your computer. The input
buffer can store up to 64KB of data, so you can free your computer
for other tasks while the printer prints. When the buffer is off, the
buffer cannot store data, so the computer must wait for the printer
to print each character before sending the next.
Skip over perforation
This feature is available only when continuous paper is selected.
When you turn on this feature, the printer provides a one-inch
(25.4 mm) margin between the last line printed on one page and
the first line printed on the next page. Because most application
programs set their own top and bottom margins, you should use
this feature only if your program does not provide them.
Auto tear-off
When you use continuous paper with the front or rear push
tractor, this feature advances the paper perforation to the tear-off
position, where you can then easily tear off the printed page.
When the printer again receives data, it automatically reverses the
paper to the top-of-form position and starts printing, so you can
use all of the next sheet. When auto tear-off is disabled (off), you
must perform the tear-off function manually by pressing the
Tear
Off/Bin
button. See “Using the Tear Off Function” later in this
chapter for more information.
