Ejecting And Tearing Off A Form - Printek PrintMaster 862 Operator's Manual

EJECTING AND TEARING OFF A FORM

When most print jobs are complete, the printer will command the paper to be positioned at the top of the
next form so that the printer is ready for the next job. This is, however, dependent solely upon how the
programmer chose to write your particular application software. If your software does position the paper at
the top of the next form, the printer will automatically position the form at the tear bar as shown in the
following picture.
If your form is positioned as shown, you may skip the next section on positioning and proceed with
"Tearing off a Form".
Positioning the Form for Tear Off
1. If your print job has completed and the form is not positioned as shown above, take the printer off
line by pressing the ONLINE button (indicator will change from green to flashing red).
2. Press the LOAD/FEED button. This will automatically position the form at the tear bar and you may
tear off the form as described below.
Tearing off a Form
1. Make sure the printer is off line (indicator flashes red when off line) by pressing the ONLINE button
if necessary. This will prevent the printer from pulling the paper down to start printing the next job
while you are tearing off this one.
2. Pull the paper toward the front of the printer and toward one side of the printer as shown.
