Setting the Tear Off position
When Auto Tear Off is set to On, it moves the top perforation of a continuous form to the Tear Off position when all
of the following are true:
• The printer has finished printing.
• The paper has advanced to the Top-Of-Form on the next page.
• No data, printer control codes, or escape codes have been sent to the printer after advancing to the Top-Of-Form.
• The print buffer has not received data for one second.
If you have already set your Top-Of-Form and now want to change the Tear Off position, follow these steps:
1 Press Start/Stop to take the printer offline.
2 Press and hold Tear Off until the printer beeps.
The
light blinks.
3 Open the control panel cover to access layer 2.
4 Press Micro or Micro to move the paper to the desired Tear Off position.
5 Close the control panel cover.
The printer beeps twice. The paper rolls backward, then goes to the new Tear Off position.
6 Press Start/Stop.
The paper remains at the current Tear Off position until you send another job to the printer. The paper moves
from the Tear Off position to the Top-Of-Form and begins printing.
