Micro feed
Use the following operation to feed the paper in very small increments. This
makes it possible to align the print head exactly where you want it.

❏ While holding down ON LINE, press LF to feed the paper forward or
MODE to feed the paper backward.

The current position of paper loaded in the printer is automatically set as the top
of the page whenever you turn power on. You can also use the following
procedure at any time to specify a different position as the top of the page.
❏ Prepare either cut-sheet or fanfold paper for feeding.
❏ Press LF to feed the paper into the printer.
❏ Make sure the printer is off-line (ON LINE indicator is not lit).
❏ Use the micro feed operations (see above) to move the paper so that the
print head is located where you want the new top of form position to be.

Setting the print mode
❏
Make sure the printer is off-line (ON LINE indicator is not lit).
❏ Press the control panel’s MODE button to switch between LQ (DRAFT
indicator is not lit) and draft (DRAFT indicator is lit) printing.
LQ printing provides high quality, but is somewhat slower. Draft printing is
quicker, but the quality is not as good as LQ.
Tear-off function (fanfold paper)

❏ Press the control panel’s MODE button.

the printer cover is aligned with the paper’s next perforation.
