Printing on Continuous Paper 2-39

Advancing the Paper to the Tear-Off Edge

If you use the front or rear push tractor, you can use the tear-off

feature to advance your continuous paper to the printer’s tear-off

edge when you finish printing. You can then easily tear off the

printed document. When you resume printing, the printer

automatically feeds the paper back to the top-of-form position so

that you can save the paper normally lost between documents.

As described below, you can use the tear-off feature in two ways:

manually by pressing the printer’s

Tear Off/Bin

button, or

automatically by turning on the auto tear-off mode.

If the perforation between pages is not aligned with the tear-off

edge, you can adjust the position of the perforation using the

micro adjust feature. See “Adjusting the tear-off position” on page

2-40 for instructions.

Caution:

Never use the tear-off feature (by pressing the

Tear Off/Bin

button or turning on the auto tear-off mode as described below)

to feed continuous paper with labels backward; they may come off

their backing sheet and jam the printer.

Using the Tear Off/Bin button

After the printer finishes printing your document, check that the

Tear Off/Bin lights are not flashing. Then press the

Tear Off/Bin

button. The printer advances the paper to the tear-off edge.

Note:

If the Tear Off/Bin lights are flashing, the paper is in the tear-off position.

If you press the

Tear Off/Bin

button, the printer feeds your paper to the

next top-of-form position.
