6 Customized Form
This printer allows the customization on the form length,
TOF
, bottom margin and left margin
for single sheets and fanfold. Restore Factory Defaults can recover these default values.
Selecting the Define value(s) in section 5.2
(Paper Setup menu) allows the printer to take up the
customized page formatting value(s).
The parameter setting procedures involve:
1. The printer prompts the dialogs and you follow the prompts.
2. Before every measurement or change, the print instructs you to unload the
conversation form from the printer.
3. With the exception of measuring the form length for cut sheets, always set the lever to
the tractors position .
4. For form length measurement, insert the customized form from the proper paper path.
The other six settings are actually done on general fanfold forms --- not the actual
customized form. Fanfold paper gives direct visual results on the TOF, bottom and left
margins even though cut sheets will be used in actual application.
