Auto Tear-off Set to On
When Auto Tear-off is set to On, continuous form paper automatically advances to the
tear-off position when:
•
the paper has advanced to the Top-Of-Form (TOF)
•
the paper has advanced to the load position on the next page
•
no data, printer control codes, or escape codes have been sent to the printer
after advancing to the TOF position
The continuous form remains at the tear-off position until the printer receives the next
print request. At that time, the continuous form moves from the tear-off position to the
TOF (load position) to prepare for printing.
One Second Tear-off
When Auto Tear-off is set to One Second, continuous form paper automatically
advances to the tear-off position if a print job ends and no data is received within one
second of the last data transmission.
Manual Tear-off (Auto Tear-off Set to Off)
When Auto Tear-off is set to Off, you can manually advance the perforation of a
continuous form to the tear-off position by pressing Tear Off, assuming the print
position is still on the same page.
Tip: To print labels, set Auto Tear-off to Off. Setting Auto Tear-off to Off
will reduce the risk of label's jamming.
