Paper Handling
Problem
Continuous paper does
not feed properly
(continued).
Skip over perforation
is set, but the
perforation does not
fall in the center
of
the
skip.
The loading position
of the paper shifts
slightly while printing
several pages.
After printing stops,
the paper
automatically feeds
forward.
The short tear-off
function is selected
(DIP switch 2-2 is on),
but it does not work.
Solution
The page length for one page of continuous
paper may be set incorrectly. Change the
setting of DIP switch 2-1.
The loading position of the paper may be
too high or too low. Use the micro-
adjustment to reset the loading position.
The paper you are trying to feed may be
too heavy for the built-in push tractor.
When highly accurate paper feed is
necessary, such as when printing carbon
copies, use the optional pull tractor.
The short tear-off function may be selected.
When you resume printing, the paper feeds
backward to its loading position. If you do
not need this function, set DIP switch 2-2
to off. See Chapter 3.
You may not have turned off the power
after setting the DIP switch. To make new
DIP switch settings effective, turn the
power off, then on again.
There may still be data in the print buffer.
The short tear-off function works only if
the data in the print buffer is completely
printed and the next print position is at the
top of the next page.
