24 Control Panel Operations

Setting the top of form position

The current position of paper loaded in the printer is automatically set as the top
of the page whenever you turn power on. You can also use the following
procedure at any time to specify a different position as the top of the page.
Make sure the printer is off-line (ON LINE indicator is not lit).
Use the micro feed operations (see above) to move the paper so that the
print head is located where you want the new top of form position to be.
While holding down FONT, press SET/EJECT/PARK.
The printer will beep once to indicate that a new top of form position has
been set.

Tear-off function (fanfold paper)

This procedure feeds fanfold paper to a position where it can be torn off easily.
Check to make sure that the printer is on-line.
Press the FORM FEED button to perform the long tear-off operation, or
press the LINE FEED button to perform the short tear-off operation.
The long tear-off operation causes the paper to be fed automatically so the
tear assist edge of the printer cover is aligned with the paper's next
perforation.
The short tear-off operation causes the paper to be fed automatically so the
tear assist edge of the printer cover is located just below the last line printed
on the paper.
Pull the paper against the tear assist edge to tear it off.
When you resume printing, the printer reverse feeds the paper to its former
position.

Selecting the Quiet Print Mode

The Quiet Print Mode lets you print with less noise than that produced with
normal printing. Use the following procedure to enter and exit the Quiet Print
Mode.
Important!
Though the Quiet Print Mode prints more quietly, it also causes printing to
take considerably longer than normal printing.
