Tap 13
“Tap 13”
is a routine built into the Printer to change the way it operates. When using Tap 13 , the Printer
prints only the number of pieces chosen. It will not eject a blank piece at the end of the run. This eliminates
the last sheet being blank, but it does slow the operation of the Printer.
Tap 13 feeds and prints one sheet at
a time. If you choose more than one sheet they will be printed, but each sheet is fed, printed and ejected
before the next sheet is fed.
To initiate the Tap 13 sequence, press and hold the Soft key on the front of the Printer, press the Cancel
key one time and then the Paper key three times. Then release the Soft key. The Cancel key light blinks
twice indicating that the Tap 13 sequence is initiated.
To print with this feature, select the paper size you are printing on in the Driver under Properties and then
select the
“Select from Above”
option. If your paper size is not listed, create a custom page size.
To cancel out of Tap 13 , press and hold the Soft key on the front of the Printer, press the Cancel key one
time and then the Paper key three times. Then release the Soft key. The Paper key light blinks twice
indicating that the Tap 13 sequence is OFF. Turning the Printer OFF also cancels Tap 13 .
