When loading single-sheet paper, you may find that the FX-286
breaks pages at different places than your word processor or applica-
tions program.
To ensure that your word processor and the FX-286 break pages at
the same point:
Print out a page on the FX-286. Check that the FX-286 and your
1.
word processor have the same page length. If they differ, note how
many lines they differ by. For example, if your word processor is
set up to print 55 lines, but the FX-286 only prints
ejecting the page, there is a difference of two lines.
2. You now have three choices:
a) Compensate for the two-line difference when rolling the paper
into the printer.
b) Use the installation procedure on your word processor to
change the default page length.
c) Use commands in your word processing program to alter the
page or margin lengths in each file to accommodate the FX-286's
page length.
3. Once you've established the best settings, always load the paper so
that your word processor starts at the same place on each page. For
example, you may find that when you roll the paper one inch
above the paper bail, the page breaks are perfect-then each time
you load paper, load it the same way.
With single-sheet paper, the key to consistent page formatting is to
establish the settings that work best for you, then position the paper in
the same place every time.
