Adjusting the Loading Position
If you want to adjust the position where printing begins on
the page, follow these steps (these instructions also work
when you use the pull or push tractor):
With paper loaded, hold down the
Pause
button until the
printer beeps once and the
Font light begins
to flash.
Press the
LF/FF
button to feed the paper forward, or press
the
Font
button to feed the paper backward. ‘(Press either
button as many times as necessary until you reach the
desired position.)
To complete the adjustment, press the
Pause
button or
send data from your computer.
Printing on Continuous Paper
Your printer can handle continuous paper with a width of
101 mm (4.0 inches) to 254 mm (10.0 inches). Depending on
where you position the tractor, you can use it as a pull tractor
or a push tractor. These guidelines can help you decide
where to position the tractor:
Do you want to switch between printing on single sheets
and continuous paper without removing the paper
supply? Will you tear off continuous paper
sheet-by-sheet? If yes, use the tractor in the push tractor
position. (The printer comes with the tractor installed in
this
positim)
seethe following section.
Are you printing on labels? If yes, use the tractor as a pull
tractor.
If your documents require a more precise print position,
use the optional pull tractor
(C800301)
in addition to the
built-in tractor in the push tractor position.
Printing in the push tractor position
When using the push tractor, it is a good idea to set the
Auto tear off feature in the Printer Setting mode to on. Here’s
how to load continuous paper using the push tractor:
1.
Make sure the printer is turned off. Remove the paper
guide and place the paper-release lever in the continuous
paper position.
