Eject Function

Enables and defines the eject function to be used. When activated,
the function is used by holding down the VIEW/EJECT key for more
than one second in offline mode.
•
Standard (default). Slews the paper two 11" pages when
VIEW/EJECT is pressed for more than one second. Pressing
VIEW/EJECT a second time retracts two pages.
•
Simple Tear. Allows demand printing for specially designed
forms which require a header of at least 2.66 inches in height.
This leader prevents the paper from falling out of the tractors
when the demanded sheet is removed.
Press the VIEW/EJECT key. The printer slews the bottom of
the last printed form to the tear position. Tear the paper, then
press the VIEW/EJECT button again. The paper reverses the
exact amount of paper it slewed, placing the print position to
the next available page. See "Demand Printing" on page 329
for detailed information on Simple Tear.
•
Form Saver. Allows near demand printing for forms that do not
have pre-printed headers or special application designs. At
least one blank page is required to load the paper so that it
does not slip out of the tractors. For shorter form lengths, two or
more blank pages may be necessary. When you press
VIEW/EJECT, the bottom of the printed page is slewed to the
tear position. When pressed again, the paper moves to the top
of the next printable page available. See "Demand Printing" on
page 329 for detailed information on Form Saver.
