Appendix A Configuration of the printer
Page Length
Page length is expressed in terms of lines within the range of 5 to 132 lines. Any page
length setting is based on six lines per inch, regardless of the number of lines per inch
selected in the line setting or defined by the application.
The following indicates the number of lines for the most common paper sizes
Paper length
appropriate setting in inches
The page length setting is the basis from which perforation skip, TEAR-OFF mode and margins
operate. An incorrect page length, therefore, gives an incorrect perforation skip.
Vertical Positioning Adjustment
This function changes the vertical position in the current macro for the five different paper paths
TRACTOR V-POS, MANUAL V-POS or only for the Multi-purpose Printer the BIN x V-POS (x = 1 up
to 3) exactly position the printout in relation to the top edge of the form in use. It is meant to be
a corrective parameter to meet variations in paper size and preprinted material. Using this
function, the TOP MARGIN and BOTTOM MARGIN setting is taken into account as well.
This parameter covers for fanfold paper a range of -
