Using Automatic Eject to Control Forms Eject
If Automatic Eject = Disabled, which is the default, you must press LOAD/EJECT
to move the form up to the tear bar. This setting is recommended if you do not
need to tear off each form as it is printed. Thus, when you determine that you
need to tear off the forms, you use LOAD/EJECT to control the tear off operations.
If Automatic Eject = Enabled, once printing finishes the printer will wait 5 seconds
then automatically move the forms up to the tear bar. This setting is recommended
if you plan to tear off each form as it finishes printing. This eliminates the need to
press LOAD/EJECT for tear off operations.
Once the forms have been ejected, the next step depends of the setting of the
Automatic Restore parameter.
The settings for Automatic Eject and Automatic Restore are used to control how
you want tear off operations to occur. There is only one setting in the printer
configuration for Automatic Eject and one setting for Automatic Restore which
apply to both the front and rear continuous forms paths. The paths cannot be
controlled individually.
Using Automatic Restore to Control Restoring of Forms
After the forms have been ejected, message ‘003 FORMS EJECTED’ is displayed.
How the restore is handled depends on the setting of Automatic Restore. If user
intervention is needed, information will be displayed in the second line of the ‘003
FORMS EJECTED’ message.
If Automatic Restore = Disabled, the forms will not be restored to the print line
until the LOAD/EJECT key is pressed. Message ‘003 FORMS EJECTED’ will be
displayed with ‘ PRESS LOAD’ displayed in the second line to guide you.
In the following two options for Automatic Restore, the automatic restore function
is being enabled. Since the forms will be restored without user intervention, the
‘003 FORMS EJECTED’ message is just informational and will be displayed with a
blank second line.
If Automatic Restore = Timer xx Seconds, the form will remain at the tear bar for
the specified number of seconds then the printer will automatically restore the
forms back down to the print line. When the next job is received printing will start.
If Automatic Restore = Data, once the form is at the tear bar it will remain there
until the next job is received by the printer at which time the printer will
automatically restore the forms back down to the print line and resume printing.
