chapter3 PAPER INSTALLATION AND USE This chapter describes instructions for printing such as selecting paper types, adjusting the printing gap, and installing paper. SELECTION OF PAPER You can use any of the following types of paper with your printer: single sheets, fanfold paper and multi-part forms. ● ✎ ✎ Single sheets (cut forms) and stati[...]

Fanfold forms Single sheets 5 Figure 3-1. Recommended print area for acceptable types of paper. ADJUSTING THE PRINTING GAP Paper comes in different weights, normally quoted in gsm (grams per square meter). Typical figures are 80 gsm and 100 gsm. Heavier paper is thicker. Also, multi-part forms are generally thicker than single sheets or ordinary fa[...]

It is a good idea to try out different settings in order to ascertain which setting gives the best results in terms of print quality. NOTE: Printing with an inappropriate gap may drastically shorten the life of the print head. The table below gives recommended settings: Weight(g/mz) Thickness (mm) Recommended ‘aPer ‘J’pe (Each sheet) (Total) [...]

LOADING AND PARKING FANFOLD FORMS This printer accepts forms up to 16” wide. The printer can feed fanfold forms using either the standard tractor unit or the optional Pull tractor unit (PT- 15XJ), as shown in Figure 3-6. —. Figure 3-6. Paper path tor tantold tOrmS. This section will take you through the procedures for loading, parking and unpar[...]

Loading the paper If you are going to load the paper with the optional Pull tractor unit, refer to Chapter 7. 1. 2. 3. 4. Place a stack of fanfold paper behind and at least one page-length below the printer. Turn the printer’s power OFF. Push the release lever forward. This has the effect of releasing the paper from the platen roller, and engagin[...]

Figure 3-9. Close the rear cover, then set the paper guide horizontally Paper parking After loading fanfold paper from the rear of the printer, you do not have to unload it when you want to print on a single sheet. The printer will “park” it for you if you follow the procedure below. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. To begin paper parking, start with power ON[...]

I Now you can load single sheets, as explained previously. The fanfold paper remains parked at the back of the printer. NOTE: You cannot park the fanfold paper if you have loaded it with the optional pull tractor unit. Paper unparking When you want to resume using fanfold paper, the procedure is as follows. 1. Remove all single sheets from the prin[...]

chapter 4 CONTROL PANEL OPERATIONS The control panel buttons can be pressed individually to perform the operations indicated by their names. Other functions can be achieved by pressing the control panel buttons in combination, or by holding these buttons down when you turn the printer’s power on. This chapter explains all the button and indicator[...]

I ON LINE The(ON LINE) button sets the printer on-line and off-line. The status changes each time you press the button. When the printer is on-line, it can receive and print data from the computer. This status is indicated by the ON LINE indicator being lit. When the printer is off-line, it stops printing and sends the computer a signal indicating [...]

I PAPER FEED If you press and release this button while off-line, the paper will feed forward one line. If you hold the button down, the printer will perform consecutive line feeds. If you also press the (ON LINE) button while you are line-feeding, the paper will feed automatically to the top of the next page. This is explained later. If you press [...]

I PITCH This button allows you to select the printing pitch. Remember that the printer must be off-line for you to do this. Successive presses of this button will illuminate (and select) the following options in order: Pitch Indicator(s) Pica (10 CPI) 10 CPI Elite (12 CPI) 10 CPI, 15 CPI Semi-condensed (15 CPI) 15 CPI Condensed pica (17 CPI) 10 CPI[...]

You can find how many lines on your paper are available for printing with l/6-inch line feeding. The printer will print the first line message on the paper, then print the last line message after feeding to the bottom of t[...]

Dot adjustment mode This mode is used to adjust the vertical alignment of text and graphics on successive bi-directional passes. After a period of time, your printer may work itself out of alignment on left and right printing passes. This malalignment appears most visibly during graphics printing. This mode will probably be used very rarely. 1. Tur[...]
