Adjusting tof position
Use the following procedure to set TOF to accord with the reference
position (6.35 mm (0.25 in)). The reference position refers to the first line
of the paper i.e. the position to which the printer feeds the paper when
automatically loading the paper.
NOTE
Adjusting of TOF can be done in cut sheet mode or continuous forms
mode.
1. Print out the menu settings of the printer as in "Confirming current
settings" on page 32 and confirm that the TOF (in cut sheet mode
or continuous forms mode) is 6.35 mm (0.25 in).
2. Set the Paper Type lever to the required paper type.
3. When continuous forms are used, place the paper on the Pin Trac-
tor.
For cut sheet mode, do not insert the paper at this stage.
4. In continuous forms mode, press the FF/LOAD button.
In cut sheet manual feeding mode, press the FF/LOAD button and
place the paper on the Paper Tray.
After the paper has started to be taken into the printer, continue
to press the FF/LOAD button and the paper is taken into the 6.35
mm (0.25 in) position.
5. Align the paper with the first print line position as follows:
In off-line mode, press the following buttons to adjust the first print
-
ing line:
To feed the paper forward by a small amount, hold down the
SHIFT button and press the FF/LOAD button.
To feed the paper backward by a small amount, hold down the
SHIFT button and press the LF button.
NOTE
If the specified correction range is more than +-7/60 in, the QUIET
indicator flashes and the paper cannot be moved.
