Performance Limitations
NOTE: If you use forms outside these limits, the print quality may not be
optimum, the printer may lose top-of-form, the frequency of paper
jams.
Paper Jams
Printer jams can occur if you tear off the form incorrectly. If you experience
two or more paper jams per box of forms, follow these guidelines to help
reduce jams:
•
Position the lower paper guides properly
•
Align the paper web tightness properly
•
Position the form perforation against the tear bar
•
Time the tear, while the paper is not moving
•
Direct the tear force toward the user and across the tear bar, not upward.
User Environment
The ZTP is noisier than the standard pedestal printer because the forms exit
the printer out of the top of the pedestal lid.
