Problem
Solution
The loading position
of the paper shifts
slightly while
printing several pages.
After printing stops,
the continuous paper
feeds forward
automatically.
The short tear-off
feature does not
operate properly.
Your application program may be
setting the top and bottom margins. If
this is the case, use SelecType to turn off
skip over perforation feature.
The paper you are trying to feed may be
too heavy for the built-in push tractor.
When highly accurate paper feeding is
necessary, such as when printing on
preprinted forms, it is recommended
that you use the optional pull tractor.
The short tear-off function may be
selected. When you resume printing the
paper feeds backward to its loading
position. If you do not need this
function, use SelecType to turn it off.
Refer to 3-23.
The AUTO TEAR OFF option may not
be on. Check the AUTO TEAR OFF
setting in SelecType. (Make sure it is
on.) Refer to 3-11.
All of the data in the buffer may not
have been printed. The short tear-off
feature feeds the page forward only after
all of the data in the buffer has been
printed and the paper is at the top of
form position. If short tear-off does not
work even when AUTO TEAR OFF is
on, send an FF (Form Feed command) to
the printer. Refer to 3-23.
