Forms Tear-off Feature
Caution!
Do not engage Forms Tear-off when printing on labels!
The Forms Tear-off feature can be engaged to automatically move the paper up to the
tear position after the selected interval (500 milliseconds, one second, or two seconds).
The page will stay in the tear-off position until the printer receives data. It will then
move down to the initial printing position.
This feature is normally turned off. To activate it, enter the printer menu (see Menu
Mode in Chapter3) and choose one of the intervals.
Some programs, such as high resolution graphics packages, pause occasion-
ally while sending data to the printer. If the pause lasts more than the selected
interval, the paper will advance to the tear-off position until more data is
received. No data will be lost, but this extra paper movement can cause un-
even print registration in graphics. If you have this problem, use the menu to
deactivate Forms Tear-off.
Paper Park Feature
If you have continuous-form paper loaded and you wish to switch to another paper
path, first tear off the printed pages, then simply press the PARK button. The continu-
ous-form paper will immediately retract from the paper path.
