Tips on using continuous paper

Follow the tips below when printing on continuous paper.
If the printer runs out of paper during a print job, load
paper onto the tractor feeder and press the Pause button to
continue printing.
You can use the micro-adjust feature to adjust the loading
position or tear-off position. See "Adjusting the loading
position" or "Adjusting the tear-off position" below. The
settings you make remain in effect until you change them
again, even if you turn off the printer.

Caution:
Do not use the knob on the left side of the printer to adjust the
loading position. Otherwise, you may damage the printer or
cause it to lose the top-of-form position.
If paper slips out of the sprocket pins, re-insert the paper
into the pins before feeding the paper backwards.

Adjusting the loading position

You can adjust the loading position of continuous paper using
the micro-adjust feature. Before adjusting the loading position,
load continuous paper to the top-of-form position using the
Load/Eject button. See page 7-8 for details.

Adjusting the tear-off position

When you press the Load/Eject button after you have finished
printing a page, you may find that the perforation is not
aligned with the tear-off edge. You can use the micro-adjust
feature to adjust paper to the tear-off edge. When you resume
printing, the printer feeds paper back to the loading position.
