This parameter covers a range of - / to + / of an inch (0.42 mm),
where "-" is up the page and "+" is further down the page (see also the
table in Chapter 3.4 Configuring the Printer for VERT.POS.ADJ.).
The set up of VERT.POS.ADJ. will become effective at the next page of
Note:
the form. Therefore, it is recommended to perform VERT.POS.ADJ. set up
as long as the paper is in the park position and before starting the print
job.
S Fanfold Displacement (FANFOLD DIS)
A continuous form can manually be displaced by this function when it is
either correctly loaded at the park position or already fed and partly
printed. The Fanfold Displacement mode can only be called up in the
status READY or BUSY.
The key has no effect when in the READY or BUSY mode.
Note:
As soon as the Fanfold Displacement mode is entered by pressing
the printer stops printing and changes into the LOCAL mode. The display
shows the message FANFOLD DIS with the value 0. By pressing
or (92) a vertical displacement is possible.

How to Use this Function
Preprinted paper (e.g. bill of lading) has to be adjusted exactly. Following
errors are possible:
S the printed value is too high - the fanfold paper has to be moved a little
bit higher.
S the printed value is too low - the fanfold paper has to be moved a little
bit lower. No backward movement is possible for a form in park position
or with the print head on the first line. The displacement will become
effective on the next page. A negative displacement is possible if this
function is used during a current print job (not at the beginning of the
page).

The offset to the current position is shown on the display. Dependent on
the status of the internal print buffer, the offset will be immediately
executed after having resumed the printing or after having printed the
remaining data in the internal print buffer. The offset value is not stored in
the configuration set up and influences only the actual line counter. The
maximum displacement range is the distance between the actual position
and the page border plus one full page, but no more than 999 steps
(nearly 1 inch). A backward movement is possible from the actual position
to the top of that page.
