Selecting Tear-off mode

By default the “Tear” parameter of the printer is set to “Manual”. If you want to transport 
the paper to tear-off position, you must press the TEAR key.

The “Tear” parameter can be set to automatic mode. In this case the paper is transported 
after a certain duration of time (1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 seconds) automatically to the tear-off posi-
tion if the printer does not receive data.

When the printer receives the next print request, the paper moves automatically from the 
tear-off position to the previous position.

Proceed as follows to select an automatic tear-off mode:

Make sure that continous paper is loaded and the printer is in offline mode. Press the 
READY key if necessary.

Hold the SHIFT key depressed and press the MENU key.
After releasing the keys, the MENU indicator lights up, indicating that the printer has 
entered the setup mode.

quick summary of how to use keys in the setup mode.

 is started from PRINTER CONTROL.

T
