Advancing Paper To The Tear-Off Position Automatically; Adjusting The Tear-Off Position - Epson LQ-2080 User Manual

Advancing paper to the tear-off position automatically

To automatically advance your printed documents to the tear-off
position, you need to turn on the auto tear-off mode and select
the appropriate page length for continuous paper in the default-
setting mode. For instructions, see "About Your Printer's Default
Settings" on page 5-4.
When auto tear-off is on, the printer automatically advances the
paper to the tear-off position whenever it receives a full page of
data or a form feed command followed by no more data.

Adjusting the tear-off position

If your paper's perforation is not aligned with the tear-off edge,
you can use the micro adjust feature to move the perforation to
the tear-off position. Follow the steps below.
Caution:
c
Never use the knob to adjust the tear-off position; this may
damage the printer or cause it to lose the tear-off position.
Note:
Your tear-off position setting remains in effect until you change it, even
if you turn off the printer.
1. Make sure the Tear Off/Bin lights are flashing (the paper is at
the current tear-off position). You may need to press the Tear
Off/Bin button to advance the paper to the tear-off position.
2. Open the paper guide cover.
3. Hold down the Pause button for about three seconds. The
Pause light begins flashing and the printer enters the micro
adjust mode.
