Adjusting the printing position
You may need to adjust the printing position in the middle of
a page, or to adjust the top-of-form position when using labels.
When you move the printing position, you temporarily change
the top-of-form position by the same amount. For example,
if you adjust the printing in the middle of the page so that it
falls a half-inch lower, the next page will begin printing a
half-inch lower as well. The printer remembers this temporary
top-of-form position until the next time you load paper, switch
tractors, or turn off the printer. To adjust the printing position
or top-of-form position, follow these steps:
1. Start printing your document. When you reach the text that
you want to align at a particular spot on the page, press the
Pause
button to stop printing.
2. Use the
Micro Feed
buttons to adjust the position where
you want your next line of text to fall. Press the button once
to feed the paper forward or backward in 1/216-inch
increments, or hold it down to move the paper
continuously.
c
Caution:
If you are printing on labels, continuous forms with
labels, or overlapping multi-part forms, use only the
forward-feeding (top)
Micro Feed
button.
3. When you are finished, press the
Pause
button to resume
printing your document.
