Using The Tear Off Button - Epson FX-870 User Manual

Tear Off
1. Print on continuous paper loaded on the front or rear push
tractor (as described in Chapter 2). When you finish printing, the
printer advances the final p&ted page's perforation to the tear-
off position.
2. Tear off all printed pages.
Note: If the perforation does not meet the tear-off edge, you can
adjust the tear-off position using the micro-feed feature as
described on page 3-15.
3. When you resume printing, the printer automatically feeds the
paper back to the loading position and begins printing.
You can leave tear-off mode on even when you are using single
sheets because tear-off mode is disabled when you move the paper-
release lever to the single-sheet position.
When you are using the pull-tractor, you need to set the tear-off
mode to invalid in the default setting mode.
