cut sheets automatically.
Work done on cut sheets looks better
that done on computer
paper, and you don't have to tear the
"perforations"
off each sheet as you must with fan-fold paper.
The automatic
sheet feeder feeds a new sheet automatically
every time the printer receives or generates
a form feed. Any
time you wish, you can turn the auto-feed unit on and off by
using control codes.

When the automatic
sheet feeder is installed, you must set
DIP switch 2-4 on to detect the paper-out condition.
In addition,
the following
functions
are ignored
when the
automatic
sheet feeder is installed:
Setting of the page length
Top and bottom margins
Vertical tab settings
Reverse feed functions
When you want to change the print start position, try to use
the (ESC) CHR$(25) "T" n command.
The value of n determines
the print start position from the top
edge of the each page. For example,(ESC)
CHR$(25) "T" "1"
command determines
to print from the top edge of the paper.
n Reading a hex dump
The BASIC in some computers
changes ASCII codes before
they send them to the printer. If you run into problem because
of this, try this hex dump to check the ASCII codes.
First turn off the printer. Hold down both the Paper Feed key
and Quality key and turn on the printer, and run the following
