5. Press the ON LINE button to put the printer on line. The printer remembers your new top of form position even after the printer is turned off, reset, or initialized. Adjusting the Printing Position For some of your printing, such as preprinted forms and labels, the alignment of your text is critical-not just at the top of form position, but in the middle of the page as well. Rather than calculate where your text will fall based on the top of form position, there's an easier way to position your printing. When you move the printing position, you temporarily change the top of form position by the same amount. For example, if you adjust the printing in the middle of a page so that it falls a half-inch lower, the next page will begin printing a half-inch lower as well. The printer remembers this temporary top of form position until the next time you load paper or switch tractors. Follow these steps to adjust your printing position: 1. Start printing your document. When you get to the text that needs to be aligned at a particular spot on the page, press the ON LINE button to stop printing. Note: You may find it easier to stop your document at the right spot if you use a slower printing speed. See the section in Chapter 3 on selecting the NLQ mode with DIP switches. 2. The printing position is normally hidden behind the ribbon. To see the position better, press the TOP OF FORM button. This advances the paper slightly so that the printing position lines up with the red line on the clear plastic ribbon mask. Loading and Using Paper 2-19
