Adjusting the top-of-form position
The top-of-form position is the position on the page where the printer starts printing. If your printing
appears too high or low on the page, you can use the Micro Adjust function to adjust the top-of-form
position.
Follow these steps to adjust the top-of-form position.
Note:
❏
Your top-of-form position setting remains in effect until you change it, even if you turn off the
printer.
❏
The top margin setting made in some applications overrides the top-of-form position setting you
make with the Micro Adjust function. If necessary, adjust the top-of-form position in your
application.
1. Open the top cover.
2. Hold down the
Pause
button for about three seconds. The
Pause
light flashes, the printer enters
Micro Adjust mode, and then the paper is advanced to the current top-of-form position.
3. Press the
FF
D
button to move the top-of-form position down on the page, or press the

U
button to move the top-of-form position up on the page.

The printer has a minimum and a maximum top-of-form position (up to 23.4 mm [0.921 inches]
backward or 50.8 mm [2 inches] forward). If you try to adjust it beyond these limits, the printer
beeps and stops moving the paper.
❏
When the paper reaches the default top-of-form position, the printer also beeps and stops moving
the paper briefly. You can use the default setting as a reference point when adjusting the
