Printing position problems
Wrong top-of-form position
Your printing appears too high or too low on the page.
Cause
What to do
The paper size setting in your
application software or
printer driver does not match
the size of the paper you are
using.
Check the paper size setting in your
application or printer driver.
The printer’s page length
settings for the front or rear
tractor do not match the size
of the continuous paper you
are using.
Check the page length settings for the
front or rear tractor using the printer’s
SelecType mode. See “Changing the
settings in SelecType mode” on page 94
for details.
The top margin or
top-of-form position setting is
incorrect.
Check and adjust the margin or
top-of-form position settings in your
application software. See the printable
area specifications in “Printable area”
on page 177.
You can also adjust the top-of-form
position using the buttons on the control
panel. However, settings made in
Windows applications override settings
made with the control panel. See
“Adjusting the top-of-form position” on
page 29 for details.
The printer driver settings you
want to use are not selected in
your software.
Choose the correct printer driver setting
from the Windows desktop or in your
application before printing.
