Short Tear-off
What happens in short tear-off mode
There are two ways of operating the short tear-off feature. One
way is to set the AUTO TEAR OFF option with SelecType.
When you have finished printing and if the perforation is at the
top of form position, the printer automatically feeds the
perforation of the continuous paper to the tear-off edge of the
paper bail so you can tear off the last printed sheet. When you
resume printing, the paper automatically feeds back to the
loading position.
See the SelecType section in this chapter for
instructions on setting the AUTO TEAR OFF option.
The other way of operating the short tear-off feature is by using
the TEAR OFF button on the control panel to feed the perforation
of your continuous paper to the tear-off edge of the printer.
After tearing off the paper, press the TEAR OFF button again to
feed the paper backward to the loading position.
WARNING: Do not use the tear-off feature when you
print labels. Make sure that the SelecType AUTO
TEAR OFF setting is off. Otherwise, labels may come
off the backing and jam the printer.
