Paper Feed Specifications Item Paper feed method Paper feed direction Specifications Friction feed Single-direction Precautions for Printing and Paper Feed ❏ Being a line printer, this printer always feeds paper to print. Therefore, when the line spacing of a single line is set to less than that of the print data, paper may be fed more than the setting to print. For example, when the line spacing of a single line is set to 10 dots, paper feed of 10 dots is executed to only make a carriage return, but paper feed of 24 dots is executed to print a bit image. (See the following table.) Paper feed Standard character Rotatable character Bit image Font A Font B Kanji font Font A Font B Kanji font Necessary paper feed (dots) 24 vertical magnification 17 vertical magnification 24 vertical magnification 12 vertical magnification 9 vertical magnification 24 vertical magnification 24 vertical magnification ❏ When the printer is placed in the wait state for data from the host during printing, it temporarily stops printing and paper feed. When data is entered and printing restarts, paper feed may be disturbed between 1 to 3 dot lines at a print start. This especially affects the printing of a bit image. ❏ It is recommended to start autocutter operation after printing or paper feed of 10 or more lines. (This is because a small piece of cut paper is difficult to eject and may cause a paper jam.) Paper Specifications Refer to "Consumable Specifications" on page 154. 138 Appendix
