Forms Tear-off Feature Caution! Do not engage Forms Tear-off when printing on labels! The Forms Tear-off feature can be engaged to automatically move the paper up to the tear position after the selected interval (500 milliseconds, one second, or two seconds). The page will stay in the tear-off position until the printer receives data. It will then move down to the initial printing position. This feature is normally turned off. To activate it, enter the printer menu (see Menu Mode in Chapter3) and choose one of the intervals. Some programs, such as high resolution graphics packages, pause occasionally while sending data to the printer. If the pause lasts more than the selected interval, the paper will advance to the rear-off position until more data is received. No data will be lost, but this extra paper movement can cause uneven print registration in graphics. If you have this problem, use the menu to deactivate Forms Tear-off. Paper Park Feature If you have continuous-form paper loaded and you wish to switch to another paper path, first tear off the printed pages, then simply press the PARK button. The continuous-form paper will immediately retract from the paper path.
