4) Because the TM-H5000
II
is a line printer, it automatically feeds paper after printing the
data.
Therefore, when the line spacing for one line is set to a smaller value than the print data,
paper may be fed more than the set amount just to print the data.
For example, when the line spacing for one line is set to 10 dots (10/180 inches) and only
paper feeding is executed, paper is fed for 10 dots; however, if bit-image characters are
printed, paper is fed for 24 dots. (Refer to Table A.1.)
When only rotated characters are printed on one line, paper feeding is executed as shown
in Table A.1.

5) When the printer goes to the standby (data-waiting) state during printing, it temporarily
stops printing and feeding paper. When data is transmitted and printing is executed, paper
may shift 1 to 3 dots from the print starting position, which especially affects bit-image
printing.
6) Interval of auto-cutting operation in the receipt section
For driving the auto cutter of the receipt section, take the interval as a minimum of 10 lines
of printing or paper feeding (to prevent small pieces of cut paper from dropping into the auto
cutter).
