9. When the printer receives data, it will start printing at the current position without advancing the
paper. If necessary, follow the steps in “Adjusting the top-of-form position” on page 56 to adjust
the current position of the paper.
10. Attach the printer cover. Make sure the sheet guide is installed and lying flat on the printer.
Note:
For your safety, Epson recommends operating the printer with the printer cover closed. The printer
will function with the printer cover opened or removed, but maximum safety and print speed are
achieved when the cover is closed.
11. The printing starts from the current position without advancing the paper. After you finish
printing, tear off the printed document at the perforation nearest the paper exit slot.
