DIP Switches
Skip-over-perforation
Turning DIP switch 1-8
on when
you are using continuous paper
enables the skip-over-perforation function. Use this function to leave
a 1-inch (25.4-mm) margin between the last printable line on one
page and the first printable line
on
the next page. This causes the
printer to skip over the perforation between continuous sheets.
Most application programs take care of the top and bottom
margins. Do not turn on skip-over-perforation unless your program
does
not
provide these margins.
Adjust your top-of-form position with the
MICRO FEED
buttons to
get half of the margin at the bottom of one page and half at
the
top
of the next page.
Continuous-paper page length
When you are printing on continuous paper, DIP switches 2-1 and
2-2 let you select from the four page lengths described in DIP-switch
Table
5 .
Tear off
You can turn
on
DIP switch 2-3 to select tear-off mode. See tear off
later in this chapter for information on tear-off mode. Use the tear-
off feature only with continuous paper loaded with the push tractor.
Do not use the tear-off feature with the pull tractor.
