Using Continuous Paper with the Push Tractor
Using the tear-off feature
When you use continuous paper, the tear-off feature makes it easier
to tear off the last printed sheet and save the paper normally lost
between documents.
Note:
l
You can tell the printer to feed the perforation of your paper to
either the edge of the printer cover or approximately 80 mm
(three inches) beyond, by setting the tear-off option as
described in Chapter 3.
l
When you set the back-feed setting to Disable in the default-
setting mode, the tear-off feature does not work. For details, see
“Labels” in this chapter or “Using the Default-Setting Mode” in
Chapter 3.
Here’s how the tear-off feature works:
1. When the printer finishes printing the last page and the print
head moves to the top-of-form position on the next page, the
printer automatically advances the paper to the tear-off position.
2. The READY light (
mode.
) blinks to indicate the printer is in tear-off
3. You can then easily tear off the page along the perforation.
4. When the printer receives data, it feeds the paper backward to
the top-of-form position and the printer begins printing.
Removing the push tractor
1. Tear off any printed pages. Press the LF/FF and FONT buttons at
the same time to feed the remaining paper backward to the
paper-park position. Remove the paper from the push tractor.
