Skip over perforation, Input buffer

Page 85 highlights

Input buffer The input buffer stores data sent from your computer. The input buffer can store up to 64KB of data, so you can free your computer for other tasks while the printer prints. When the buffer is off, the buffer cannot store data, so the computer must wait for the printer to print each character before sending the next. Skip over perforation This feature is available only when continuous paper is selected. When you turn on this feature, the printer provides a one-inch (25.4 mm) margin between the last line printed on one page and the first line printed on the next page. Because most application programs set their own top and bottom margins, you should use this feature only if your program does not provide them. Auto fear-off When you use continuous paper with the front or rear push tractor, this feature advances the paper perforation to the tear-off position, where you can then easily tear off the printed page. When the printer again receives data, it automatically reverses the paper to the top-of-form position and starts printing, so you can use all of the next sheet. When auto tear-off is disabled (off), you must perform the tear-off function manually by pressing the Tear Off/Bin button. See "Using the Tear Off Function" later in this chapter for more information. Using the Printer 3-11

The input buffer stores data sent from your computer. The input
buffer can store up to 64KB of data, so you can free your computer
for other tasks while the printer prints. When the buffer is off, the
buffer cannot store data, so the computer must wait for the printer

Skip over perforation
This feature is available only when continuous paper is selected.
When you turn on this feature, the printer provides a one-inch
(25.4 mm) margin between the last line printed on one page and
the first line printed on the next page. Because most application
programs set their own top and bottom margins, you should use
this feature only if your program does not provide them.
Auto fear-off
When you use continuous paper with the front or rear push
tractor, this feature advances the paper perforation to the tear-off
position, where you can then easily tear off the printed page.
When the printer again receives data, it automatically reverses the
paper to the top-of-form position and starts printing, so you can
use all of the next sheet. When auto tear-off is disabled (off), you
must perform the tear-off function manually by pressing the

button. See “Using the Tear Off Function” later in this
chapter for more information.
