Using the tear-off function
You can use the tear-off function to advance your continuous paper to the printer’s tear-off position
after you finish printing.
❏
To tear off the printed sheet manually after printing, press the
Tear Off
button to advance the
perforation of the paper to the tear-off position.
❏
To enable the auto tear-off function, turn on the Auto Tearoff Setting from the printer driver. The
printer advances the perforation of the paper to the tear-off position automatically when a set time
has passed after printing. When the printer receives the print data, the printer feeds the paper
backward to the top-of-form position automatically. For more information, see “Setting the Auto
Tear-Off Function” on page 35.
If the paper perforation is not in the desired tear-off position, you can use the Micro Adjust function to
adjust the position of the perforation. For more information, see “Adjusting the tear-off position” on
page 23.
Follow these steps to use the auto tear-off function.
