Pedestal models

Using the vertical position knob to move the paper up, guide the paper
over the upper paper guide and through the slot to the rear of the top
cover. For pedestal models with the Quick Access Cover, refer to the

Quick Setup Guide

for paper exiting options.

PAPER ADVANCE

several times to make sure the paper feeds

properly beyond the tractors and over the lower paper guide. Feed
sufficient paper to ensure the paper stacks correctly.

in the output area (inside the cabinet). Close the front and rear doors.

Figure 14. Aligning the Perforation with the TOF Indicator

27. Align the top of the first print line with the TOF indicator on the tractor by

rotating the vertical position knob. For best print quality, it is
recommended that the top-of-form be set at least one print line or more
below the perforation.

NOTE:

For exact positioning, press the

VIEW/EJECT

key to move the last

data printed to the tractor area for viewing. While in View mode
“Printer in View” displays. Press the Up or Down Arrow keys to move
the paper vertically in small increments. Pressing the

VIEW/EJECT

key a second time moves the paper back to the adjusted print
position. The key works both online and offline provided that the
printer is in View mode. (This procedure is applicable for both the
cabinet and pedestal models.)
