Adjusting the top-of-form position
The top-of-form position is thevertical position on the page where
the printer starts printing. If the printout appears too high or low
on the page, you can use this function to adjust the top-of-form
position.
Follow these steps to adjust the top-of-form position:
Note:
❏ The factory set default for the top-of-form position is set as shown
below.
PR2: 4.2 mm
ESC/P and IBM PPDS: 8.5 mm
❏ This mode can be used even when the printer cover is open.
❏ If you wish to change the top-of-form position in PR40+, make sure
that you set the TOF position for PR40+ to Off.
❏ Your top-of-form position setting remains in effect until you change
it, even if you turn off the printer.
❏ The top margin setting made in some application software overrides
the top-of-form position setting you make with this function. If
necessary, adjust the top-of-form position in your software.
❏ Prepare an A4 size sheet of paper before using this function.
