AutoGap Set to Single

When AutoGap is set to Single, the printer sets the gap between the
printhead and the paper only once. This should only be used when
printing on several cut sheets of the same thickness while using the Auto
Sheet Feeder. The printer adjusts the printhead to the paper’s thickness
when you turn the printer on or when the paper select lever is changed.

There are two Single AutoGap options:

Open (factory default) means that the printhead moves out of the way

as each sheet of paper is loaded. This setting reduces paper jams.

Fixed means that once the gap is set, the printhead does not move.
