Advancing The Paper To The Tear-Off Edge - Epson LX–350 User Manual

The printer has a minimum and a maximum top-of-form position. If you try to adjust it beyond these
limits, the printer beeps and stops moving the paper.
When the paper reaches the default top-of-form position, the printer also beeps and stops moving the
paper briefly. You can use the default position as a reference point when adjusting the top-of-form
position.
After you set the top-of-form position, press the Pause button to exit the Micro Adjust mode.

Advancing the paper to the tear-off edge

If you use the push tractor, you can use the tear-off feature to advance your continuous paper to the printer's tear-off edge
when you finish printing. You can then easily tear off the printed document. When you resume printing, the printer
automatically feeds the paper back to the top-of-form position so that you can save the paper normally lost between
documents.
As described below, you can use the tear-off feature in two ways: manually, by pressing the printer's Tear Off (Font) button,
or automatically, by turning on the auto tear-off mode.
Caution:
Never use the tear-off feature (as described below) to feed continuous paper with labels backwards; they may
come off their backing sheet and jam the printer.
Using the Tear Off button
After the printer finishes printing your document, check that the Tear Off (Font) light is not flashing. Then press the Tear Off
(Font) button. The printer advances the paper to the tear-off edge.
Note:
If the Tear Off (Font) light is flashing, the paper is in the tear-off position. If you press the Tear Off (Font)
button again, the printer feeds your paper to the next top-of-form position.
Advancing the 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
settings.
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 these steps to adjust the tear-off position:
Caution:
Never use the paper feed knob to adjust the tear-off position; this may damage the printer or cause it to lose
the tear-off position.
