Adjusting the Top-of-Form Position
The top-of-form position is where the printer will start
printing on the page. If your printing appears too high or low,
follow the steps below to use the micro adjust feature to adjust
the top-of-form position.
Caution:
Never use the knob to adjust the top-of-form position
while the printer is turned on; this may damage the
printer or cause it to lose the top-of-form position. The
knob can be used when the printer is turned off only.
Note:
Your top-of-form position setting remains in effect until you change it,
even if you turn off the printer.
The top margin setting made in some application software overrides the
top-of-form position setting you make with the micro adjust feature. If
necessary, adjust the top-of-form position using your software.
1. Make sure the printer is turned on. If necessary, load the
paper you want to use. If you load paper onto a push
tractor, press the

Note:
The printer has a minimum and a maximum top-of-form position.
If you try to adjust it beyond these limits, the printer beeps and
stops moving the paper.
When the paper reaches the default top-of-form position, the
printer also beeps and stops moving the paper briefly. You can
use the default setting as a reference point when adjusting the
top-of-form position.

To adjust the top-of-form position for continuous paper
loaded on the pull tractor, see the following example:
First mark a point 0.26 inch (6.5 mm) above the paper's
perforation; then position the paper so that the mark is even
with the top edge of the plastic ribbon cover. This gives you
a 0.33 inch (8.5 mm) margin on the next page, which
means the printer starts printing 0.33 inch (8.5 mm) below
the perforation. If you mark a point 0.22 inch (5.5 mm)
above the perforation, you get a 0.37 inch (9.5 mm) margin
on the next page.
5. After you set the top-of-form position, press the
button to exit the micro adjust mode.
Advancing the Paper to the Tear-Off Edge
If you use the front or rear push tractor, you can use the tear-
off feature to advance your continuous paper to the tear-off
edge when you finish printing. You can then easily tear off the
printed document. When you resume printing, the printer
automatically feeds the paper back to the top-of-form position
so that you can save the paper normally lost between
documents.
As described in the next section, you can use the tear-off
feature in two ways: manually by pressing the printer's
button, or automatically by turning on the auto tear-

off mode.
If the perforation between pages is not aligned with the tear-
off edge, you can adjust the position of the perforation using
the micro adjust feature. For instructions, see "Adjusting the
tear-off position" on page 23.
Caution:
Never use the tear-off feature (by pressing the Tear Off/
Bin button or turning on the auto tear-off mode) to feed
continuous paper with labels backward; they may come
off their backing sheet and jam the printer.
