When Auto Tear Off is On or set to One Second, it 
moves the top perforation of a continuous form to the 
Tear Off position when all of the following are true:
The printer has finished printing.
The paper has advanced to the Top-Of-Form 
on the next page.
No data, printer control codes, or escape 
codes have been sent to the printer after 
advancing to the Top-Of-Form.
The print buffer has not received data for

The paper remains at the current Tear Off position until 
you send another job to the printer. The paper moves
