Thank you for purchasing this SEIKO Precision

 

FB-380 printer. 

Combing high speed, high quality output with advanced paper handing capabilities, this versatile, 

24-pin, flatbed printer is ideal for a wide range of multi-part and cut-sheet printing requirements. 

Reliability, flexibility and ease-of-use are key features, making the FB-380 the perfect choice for 

performing demanding applications in a variety of environments. 

 

Versatile, Reliable, Straight Paper Path 
 
The straight paper path enables paper to feed through the printer without bending, thus reducing 

the risk of paper jamming. The versatile FB-380 prints on a wide variety of paper types from 7-part 

forms to labels, envelopes and reports, as well as media up to 0.45mm thick. 

 

Easy Paper Handing   
 
The printer has several other useful features, which help eliminate paper handing problems and 

ensure quick, accurate results. 

 

The automatic paper load function ensures cut sheet paper fed into the printer is correctly 

positioned. The FB-380 also has an automatic skew detection function, which ejects forms which 

are not fed in straight. 

 

At the touch of a button, tractor paper loaded onto the tractor is automatically set to the printing 

position. When printing is completed, the paper feeds out to the front table for easy tear-off. 

 

This causes tractor paper to be automatically fed to the tear-off position at the edge of the window 

cover, for easy tear-off at the perforations after printing. This zero tear-off capability helps eliminate 

paper wastage. 

 

A simple command on the control panel enables the tractor paper to be retracted (parked) outside 

of the print mechanism so that after switching the paper path select lever, cut sheet paper can be 

fed into the printer from the front.   

After the cut sheet paper has been printed, reverse the paper path lever so that the fanfold 

stationery can be advanced back into the print mechanism for the next print job.
