How to Use this Function
Preprinted paper (e.g. bills of lading) has to be adjusted exactly. Following errors are possible:

The printed value is too high - the fanfold paper has to be moved a little bit higher.

The printed value is too low - the fanfold paper has to be moved a little bit lower. No
backward movement is possible for a form in park position or with the print head on the
first line. The displacement will become effective on the next page. A negative
displacement is possible if this function is used during a current print job (not at the
beginning of the page).
After pressing again, paper is fed in case it was in the park position. In all other cases the
paper remains at its actual position. Each further pressing of increases, the lines counter
by increments of
1
/
60
inch.
Each further pressing of decreases, the lines counter by decrements of 1 /
60
inch. Holding
of Or causes the first 20 increments in single steps (
1
/
60
inch) thereafter in multipliers
of ten which results in a Continuous increment or decrement of the offset counter by steps ( 1 /
6
inch). If the reached value is too high! go backwards by pressing
The offset to the current position is shown on the display. Dependent on the status of the internal
print buffer, the offset will be immediately executed after having resumed the printing or after
having printed the remaining data in the internal print buffer. The offset value is not stored in the
configuration set up and influences only the actual line counter. The maximum displacement
range is the distance between the actual position and the page border plus one full page, but no
more than 999 steps (nearly 1 inch). A backward movement is possible from the actual position
to the top of that page.
If the setting is, procedure is completed change with to the READY or BUSY mode.
