Pressing Ready or pressing Eject/Restore a second time causes the
paper to return to its original position.
NOTE: If you are using this function to tear off forms, you might want to
press Form Feed before using the Eject/Restore function. This will
avoid unloading the paper as it is restored to its original position.
When TOP EXIT TEAR mode is selected, the Eject/Restore key operates as
follows:
Pressing Eject/Restore causes the paper to advance the bottom of the
last printed form to the tear position, ready for the operator to tear off the
printed forms.
Pressing Eject/Restore a second time causes the paper to move into
position such that the top of the first possible form available for printing
is positioned ready for printing. (The direction and amount of paper
movement will depend on the length of the forms; one or more blank
forms will be skipped.)
NOTE: The TOP EXIT TEAR setting is meaningful only on pedestal model
printers. TOP EXIT TEAR cannot be selected on cabinet model
printers.
Forms length must be set correctly for the TOP EXIT TEAR mode
to function properly.
