ZTP Data Time
This option sets the pause time in the data stream that the ZTP requires before moving the form to the
tear bar once a print job is completed. The values range from .5 to 15 seconds. The default is .5 seconds.
ZTP Wait Time
This option sets the minimum amount of time that the form stays at the tear bar. This allows you time to
remove the form before the form is retracted to print the next form. The adjustable values range from 1 to
10 seconds in increments of 1 second. The default value is 2 seconds.
ZTP TearDistance
This option sets the tear off distance from the current print position to the tear bar. Adjustable values in
increments of 1/144th of an inch range from 200 to 2880. The left and right arrows adjust the display
value. When you press the ENTER key, the selected value is stored and a scale is printed to indicate the
current tear off position. The default value is 1060.
NOTE: When a new value is selected, the printer will lose the current print position. You must reset the
top of form to automatically save the new value.
ZTP Platen Open
This option allows the user to have the platen open whenever forms are reversed. Enabled is the default,
used for most papers and labels. The feature can be disabled as required by some multi-part forms.
ZTP Function
This option enables or disables all unique ZTP functions. The default is Enable.
NOTE: When the ZTP Function is enabled, the VIEW key is disabled and Slow Paper Slew is enabled.
