Adjusting The Top-Of-Form Position - Epson FX-880+ Quick Manual

Adjusting the top-of-form position

The top-of-form position is the position on
the page where the printer starts printing. If
your printing appears too high or low on the
page, you can use the Micro Adjust function
to adjust the top-of-form position.
Follow these steps to adjust the top-of-form
position:

Caution:
Never use the knob to adjust the
top-of-form position; this may damage the
printer or cause it to lose the top-of-form
position.
Note:
❏ Your top-of-form position setting remains in
effect until you change it, even if you turn off
the printer.
❏ The top margin setting made in some
application software overrides the
top-of-form position setting you make with
the Micro Adjust function. If necessary,
adjust the top-of-form position in your
software.
1. Make sure the printer is turned on.
2. Load paper. (If the tractor is in a push
position, press the Load/Eject button to
advance continuous paper to the current
top-of-form position.) If necessary, lift
up the printer cover so you can see the
paper position.
3. Hold down the Pause button for about
three seconds. The Pause light starts
flashing and the printer enters the Micro
Adjust mode.

4. Press the LF/FF D button to move the
top-of-form position up on the page, or
press the Load/Eject U button to move
the top-of-form position down on the
page.
Note:
❏ The printer has a minimum and a
maximum top-of-form position. If you
try to adjust it beyond these limits, the
printer beeps and stops moving the
paper.
❏ When the paper reaches the default
top-of-form position, the printer also
beeps and stops moving the paper
briefly. You can use the default setting
as a reference point when adjusting the
top-of-form position.
5. After you set the top-of-form position,
press the Pause button to exit the Micro
Adjust mode.
