Using the Tear Off button
After the printer finishes printing your document, check that the
Tear Off
lights are not flashing. Then press the
Tear Off
button.
The printer advances the paper to the tear-off edge.
Note:

Tear Off

If you press the
Tear Off
button again, the printer feeds your paper to

paper to the tear-off position whenever it receives a full page of

if you turn off the printer.

Tear Off
lights are flashing (the paper is at the
current tear-off position). You may need to press the
Tear Off
button to advance the paper to the tear-off position.
