PAPER SHEAR

If the paper shear option is installed, then note that the appropriate strap must be set
in the hardware options menu in order for the paper shear to work.

Parameter p1 = 1 selects the paper shear.

Parameter p2 = 1 executes a cutting sequence: If the vertical position is not at top-of-
form, then a form feed is executed. Paper is advanced to the shear position and cut.
Next, it is advanced an inch to eject the sheet that has been cut off; then it is
retracted to the top margin on the following form. The horizontal position following a
shear is the left margin. The shear position should be set from the control panel so
that paper is cut precisely at the perforation. If a non-zero top print reference is
needed, then set the top print reference first and then set the shear position.
