1.9.1.2 Paper Feed Operations
Paper Loading and Paper Ejection
The paper release lever has a disengage capability for the optional pull tractor unit’s drive mechanism.
Therefore, these printers provide some improved paper handling functions that can be performed by using
a combination of the paper release lever and LOAD/EJECT switch on the control panel.
Single Sheet Loading and Ejection
To load a sheet of paper, adjust the paper release lever at friction feed position, place the page along the
sheet guide, and press the LOAD/EJECT switch. This loads the paper at the top-of-form position. If
LOAD/ EJECT switch is pressed after paper has been loaded, it causes the paper to be ejected.
Continuous Paper Loading and Ejection (Back Out)
To load continuous paper, adjust the paper release lever at tractor feed position, and insert the paper into
the push tractor. Pressing the
switch loads the paper automatically to the top-of-form
position. If LOAD/EJECT switch is pressed after the continuous paper has been loaded, the printer ejects
the paper backward to the push tractor.
out several pages, press the LOAD/EJECT switch several
times, since reverce feed is performed on a page-by-page basis.
The MULTI-PART LED blinks only after the paper has been loaded and the ON LINE switch has been
pressed. After ON-LINE has been pressed, the user can adjust the paper loading position for the next sheet
loaded into the printer and the top-of-form position for the currently loaded sheet. Pressing the FORM FEED
switch advances the paper forward continuously for as long as the switch is held down, and pressing the
LINE FEED switch moves the paper in reverse.
Moving the paper with these switches is called “Top-Of-Form adjust”. After the paper has been adjusted
in this way, the printer uses that position as the loading position for each subsequent page. When the
printer is initialized, the loading position for single sheet returns to the default value.
Tear-Off Function
The paper is advanced to the tear-off position by pressing the TEAR OFF switch or auto tear-off function
(depend on DIP SW 2-7 setting) when the tractor feed is selected. Auto tear-off function is enabled and the
paper release lever is at the tractor position, the paper will be fed to the tear-off position automatically if
the input data buffer is empty and the printer is ON-LINE. At this time, MULTI-PART LED will blink to
indicate that the FORM FEED and LINE FEED switches can be used for forward and
micro feed
adjustment. Using the micro feed, adjust the paper to meet the tear-off edge. Once the tear-off position is
set, the setting remains valid even after the printer is turned off, reset or initialized. If subsequent data is
input to the printer, the paper will be released to the original position automatically and printing will start.
the ON LINE switch is pressed (printer becomes OFF LINE) while the paper is advanced to the tear-off
position, then the paper will be released to the original position.
Tear-off function is also valid in the cut sheet feeder mode when the tractor feed is selected.
