Print positions often change gradually when you use the printer over long periods of time.
The ADJUST function allows you to adjust these positions by fine-tuning the Top-of-Form

a) Make sure that the tractors are loaded with continuous feed paper and that the pa-
per select lever is set backward.
b) Turn the printer off.
c) Turn the printer back on while pressing the “PARK” key.
2 To set Top Adjustment value:
a) The format of adjustment Loading Position is printed as below, 15 patterns of
adjustment Loading Position are printed.
b) The format of Loading Position is printed and the paper is automatically advanced
for viewing after the printing is complete. The message of ”Loading Position
Pos = xx” is printed.
c) Use the NEXT and PREVIOUS key to choose the new top position. The adjustment
range is "01-15", and the center value is "08". It is possible to set different values
