Top of page position When you turn on your LX-80, it will remember this top of page setting and will use it when any program tells it to move to the top of the next page. If you later find that your word processing or other applications program is putting your printing too high or too low on the page or is printing on the perforations, check to see that your top of page setting is correct. Once you have set the top of page, each time you finish printing a document, push the ON LINE button to put the printer off-line and then push the FF button once to advance the paper so that you can tear off your just-printed pages and the paper will be in the right position to begin the next document.

When you turn on your LX-80, it will remember this top of page
setting and will use it when any program tells it to move to the top of
the next page. If you later find that your word processing or other
applications program is putting your printing too high or too low on
the page or is printing on the perforations, check to see that your top
of page setting is correct.
Once you have set the top of page, each time you finish printing a
document, push the ON LINE button to put the printer off-line and
then push the FF button once to advance the paper so that you can
tear off your just-printed pages and the paper will be in the right
position to begin the next document.
