Adjusting The Tear-Off Position; Switching Between Continuous And Single Sheet Paper - Epson Stylus Color 3000 User Manual

Printing on Special Media
Caution:
Never adjust the tear-off
position when you're
printing labels. This could
feed labels backward,
causing them to tear off
inside the printer.

Adjusting the Tear-off Position

First make sure that continuous paper is loaded and parked in
the current tear-off position (see page 3-19 for details). Follow
these steps to adjust the tear-off position:
1. Press the
Micro Adjust
or the
Micro Adjust
either button as many times as necessary to align the
perforation with the tear-off edge. When the adjustment
reaches the maximum setting for your printer, it does not
move further.
2. Tear off any printed pages.
3. Press the
Load/Eject
continuous paper backward to the paper-park position so
it's ready for printing the next time you need it.
The tear-off position you select remains in effect until you
change it again, even when you turn off the printer.
For instructions on setting your printer's auto tear-off mode, see
Appendix B.
Switching Between Continuous
and Single Sheet Paper
When you have both continuous paper and single sheet paper
loaded in the paper tray, you can switch between paper types
whenever you need to print on them. Follow these steps:
1. If continuous paper remains inside the printer, tear off the
printed pages. Then press the
printer's control panel to feed the paper backward to the
paper-park position.
If single sheet paper is loaded, press the
to eject any sheets still inside the printer.
