Tips for Printing on Single Sheets

There are a few things you should know about printing on single sheets as opposed to continuous paper. When you print on single sheets, you may notice that your printer prints the first page of your file correctly but then prints too low on the next page, or that it prints the last few lines from one page onto the next.

These differences in print position are easy to adjust; you can simply change some of the settings in your application program as described below to get the right results.

1.When you install an application program, it normally asks you what printer you are using. Make sure you choose the correct printer. See Chapter 1 for the right printer to choose.

2.Many programs include an option to set the maximum lines per page. If your program has a lines-per-page setting and you are using 8 1/2 x 11-inch paper, set the lines per page to 61; for A4, try 65.

Note: To find the right lines-per-page setting for paper that is not 8 1/2 x 11, create a test document using your application program. Set your top and bottom margins to 0 and then create a file of numbered lines from 1 to 66. When you print your file, notice the last number printed on the first page. This is your maximum lines-per- page setting.

3.If your program doesn’t have a lines-per-page setting, try decreasing the top margin or increasing the bottom margin, or both, until you get the results you want.

4.You can also try adjusting the form length setting. For a 8 l/2 x 11-inch page, try setting the form length at 10 inches (10.5 inches for A4).

5.Some programs also let you indicate whether you are using single sheets or continuous paper. Make sure you choose single sheets.

Choosing a Place for the Printer

The printer works flat or upright, as shown below. You can set it whichever way fits your preference or working space.

When selecting a place for your printer, follow these guidelines:

Place the printer on a flat, stable surface. Do not slide the printer on rough surfaces; you may damage the flap on the bottom otherwise.

Place the printer close enough to the computer for its interface cable to reach the computer.

Leave adequate room for easy operation and maintenance.

Avoid locations that are subject to direct sunlight, excessive heat, moisture, or dust.

Use a grounded outlet; do not use an adapter plug.

Place the printer where you can easily unplug the power cord.

Avoid electrical outlets controlled by wall switches or automatic timers. And avoid outlets on the same circuit as large motors or other appliances that can cause fluctuations in line voltage.

Keep the entire computer system away from potential sources of electromagnetic interference, such as loudspeakers or the base units of cordless telephones.

1-4 Setting Up the Printer

Choosing a Place for the Printer

If you plan to use a printer stand, follow these guidelines:

•Use a stand that supports at least 9 kg (20 lbs).

•Never use a stand that tilts the printer. It should always be kept level.

•Make sure to provide enough clearance below the stand and between the legs so your continuous paper feeds smoothly.

•Place cables so they do not interfere with paper feeding; secure them to a leg of the stand if possible.

•Align the continuous paper stack so the paper feeds straight into the optional tractor’s sprocket units.

Installing the Ribbon Cartridge

Before you install the ribbon cartridge, make sure the power cord is not plugged into an electrical outlet.

1.Use the tabs on both sides of the printer cover to lift it off the printer. Then slide the print head to the middle of the printer.

CAUTION: Never move the print head while the printer is turned on; this can damage the printer. Also, if you have just used the printer, let the print head cool for a few minutes before you touch it.

Printing on Single Sheets

You can load standard-sized single sheets with the paper cassette and you can load single sheets of paper from 148 mm (5.8 inches) to 257 mm (10.1 inches) wide with the manual insertion slot.

Tips for using the paper cassette

To review the steps for loading paper in the paper cassette, see “Loading paper into the paper cassette” on page 1-9. The tips below help you get the best performance when printing with the cassette.

Load paper in the paper cassette before you turn on the printer and send data. When the printer receives data from the computer, it loads a single sheet automatically and begins to print.

If the printer runs out of paper during a print job, reload the paper cassette and press the FORM FEED button to load the paper.

Press the FORM FEED button to eject a sheet of loaded paper.

You can adjust the top-of-form position with the gear under the printer cover. It is marked by + and - signs. Open the printer cover and turn the gear to adjust the position. The notches on the ribbon mask indicate the base line of printed characters. The gear adjustment affects only the loaded page. If you want to change the top-of-form position permanently, you can adjust it in the default-setting mode described in Chapter 3. However, most application software programs take care of the top and bottom margins. You usually don’t need to set the top-of-form position on the printer.

2-2 Paper Handling

Printing on Single Sheets

•When you want to push the paper support back into the paper cassette, first remove paper from the paper cassette. Then push the paper support in while pushing down on the locking tab.

•The default page length for the paper cassette is 65 lines (A4-size paper) or 61 lines (letter-size paper). You can change it using your application software or printer commands, if necessary. See the Appendix for more about printer commands.

•You can switch to manual insertion or to the optional push tractor without removing the paper cassette. For instructions, see “Loading paper manually” or “Switching Between Continuous Paper and Single Sheets” later in this chapter.

Loading paper manually

You can load single sheets of paper from the rear manual insertion slot. (If you’ve installed the optional push tractor, remove it before loading paper manually.)

1.Place the printer in the upright position and turn it on.
