USING YOUR PRINTER > 14
TOP OF FORM (TOF)
Top of Form (TOF) sets the print start position. The factory default is 1"
from the top.
The TOF can be changed in increments of 1/144", for either a single
print job, or all print jobs. The overall amount of adjustment is limited
to avoid paper jams.
The first line prints at the red line of the plastic paper shield (1) on the
printhead.
NOTE
For single-sheet printing, the paper lever must be in the middle
position.
CAUTION!
If you turn the platen knob when the printer is not at Top of Form, the
TOF will misalign. Always feed the paper to TOF before turning the
platen knob.
NOTE
> Your software may print the first line of print above or below where
TOF is set. You may need to adjust the TOF to meet your softwares
requirements.
> The Top of Form and Forms Tear-Off settings of your printer interact.
How you set the Top of Form depends on whether
Forms Tear-Off
is
ON (set to 500 ms, 1 sec, or 2 sec) or OFF (the factory default
setting).
