Thickness
The thickness of all forms should be a minimum of 0.08 mm (0.003
in.) and a maximum of 0.25 mm (0.010 in.).

them for forms handling, print registration, and print quality.

Performance Considerations
When using the F3 device, you can use a width of up to 381 mm (15
in.). However, for optimum feeding and print registration, a

performance, printing should be restricted to 127 mm (0.5 in.) from
all edges of the form.
Forms are available from IBM or any forms supplier.
