Feeding and Positioning Paper
Print Area Definition
TOF (Top-of-Form): This value defines the distance between the edge of the pa-
per and the place where you allow the printing to begin (position of line
number 1). You can adjust this distance according to the condition of your paper
(for example, pre-printed forms). When you load the paper, the printer feeds the
paper to this position, waiting for printing commands.
L (Form Length): Set the corresponding Set-Up option (FORM LENGH) accord-
ing to the actual physical page length (distance between two perforations for con-
tinuous forms). This will allow the printer to know exactly where the print head
is and to position it at the same position when a form feed occurs.
Top line 1 : This is the line where the printing actually starts. To define a top mar-
gin, select the number of this line within Set-Up mode (TOP MRGN option). Ex-
ample: In the following picture, TOP MRGN option is set to 3.
Bottom line 2 : This is the line where the printing actually stops. To define a bot-
tom margin, select the number of this line within Set-Up mode (BOTTOM MRG
option). Example: In the following picture, BOTTOM MRG option is set to 50.
Left column 3 : This is the column where the printing actually starts. To define a
left margin, select the number of this column within Set-Up mode (LEFT MAR-
GN option). Example: In the following picture, LEFT MARGN option is set to 4.
Print area 4 : Print area defined by the corresponding Set-Up options: Form
Length, Top-of-Form, Top Margin, and Bottom Margin.
Paper perforation 5 : The perforation defines the physical page length.
