Advancing the paper to the tear-off position automatically
To automatically advance your printed documents to the tear-off
position, you need to turn on the auto tear-off mode and select
the appropriate page length for continuous paper in the default-
setting mode. For instructions, see “Changing default settings”
on page 5-9.
When auto tear-off is on, the printer automatically advances the
paper to the tear-off position whenever it receives a full page of
data or a form feed command followed by no more data.
Adjusting the tear-off position
If your paper’s perforation is not aligned with the tear-off edge,
you can use the micro adjust feature to move the perforation to
the tear-off position. Follow these steps:

Caution:
Never use the knob to adjust the tear-off position; this may
damage the printer or cause it to lose the tear-off position.
Note:
Your tear-off position setting remains in effect until you change it, even
if you turn off the printer.
1. Make sure the Tear Off/Bin lights are flashing (the paper is
at the current tear-off position). You may need to press the
Tear Off/Bin button to advance the paper to the tear-off
position.
2. Open the paper guide cover.
3. Hold down the Pause button for about three seconds. The
Pause light begins flashing and the printer enters the micro
adjust mode.
