• With roll-feed paper, the printer cannot separate the paper
because there are no perforations. Burst on Eject must be set
to Disable. The perforations separator is not used, and paper is
never rolled back out of the engine. If you need to remove the
paper before the entire roll is used, it must be manually
removed.
When Burst on Eject is disabled, note the following effects:
• PAGE EJECT: When you press PAGE EJECT or send a
~PAGE EJECT command, the paper is not separated and is
not rolled back into the printer. Instead, enough forms are
inserted to fuse and move all pages physically out of the
printer. The exact distance depends on the current Paper
Length selection. The paper moves a minimum of 25.5 inches.
Note that the printer uses Paper Length and not Form Length
for paper motion. If the current Form Length is not a multiple of
1/6 inch, the exact distance the paper is moved is not a multiple
of the form size. When using a preprinted roll-feed form, the
physical top-of-form may be lost.
• FORM SIZE CHANGE: A form size change operates the same
as pressing the PAGE EJECT key. Instead of separating the
form, enough form feeds are inserted to move the printed
pages out of the printer.
Note also that when you load a configuration having a different
Paper Length, the same operation occurs: the printer sends
form feeds rather than cutting the page and reverse-feeding it
out of the printer.
• FAULT HANDLING: In normal operation, roll-fed paper is not
removed from the printer. However, after a fault that requires
reprinting (such as a paper jam), you must remove the paper
and reseat it in the tractors. The control panel indicates when
this is necessary.
• BOOT: When powering on, the printer does not cut the paper in
the printer or roll it back out of the printer.
