Form Tear Off (continuous form paper only)
Form Tear Off (continuous form paper only)
This feature lets you remove a printed page from the printer without wasting paper. Activate it by
changing the setting for the Form Tear Off menu selection to 500ms, 1 sec, or 2 sec. (See Chapter 3 ( )
for details on the printer menu.)
Note
Keep in mind that there are separate menu groups for each of the three possible paper paths. Be sure to
activate the Form Tear Off selection for the one you are using, rear feed or bottom feed.
After you load paper and press the FORM FEED button, the paper will advance past the printing (top of
form) position to the tear bar position. It stays in this position until the printer receives data; the paper
then moves back down for printing. A few seconds after printing stops, the paper moves back to the tear
bar
so you can tear it off without feeding an extra sheet of paper.
You can check the top of form position by pressing the TEAR button. Release the button to return to the
tear off position.
