Tips for Continuous Forms
•
When using a table or desk for the printer, position the
printer and paper supply so that the paper does not drag on
the edge of the surface as it enters the printer. The printer
should be as close to the edge of the table or desk as possible.

•
Place the paper box so that paper flows out of it without
dragging on the sides of the box.
•
Each time a new box of paper is started, bend the flaps down
and tape them to the sides of the box or cut them off. Also
pull the sides of the box away from the paper stack to allow
clearance.
•
If printing bar codes, using stiff forms, or using thick
multipart forms, place the paper supply beneath the printer
and use the bottom paper path.
•
As the paper supply begins to run low, remove the remaining
paper stack from the box and place it beneath the printer.
•
When printing graphics or bar codes, do not use
view the page. Paper moves backwards during a tear-off cycle,
and sometimes this causes a tiny error in vertical registration.
The error is not noticeable when printing text, but an error as
small as 1/72 inch shows up as a horizontal stripe in
graphics or bar codes.
CAUTION: When printing continuous forms, do not attempt
to back the perforation past the print head. This
may cause the paper to snag on the print head.
This is likely to occur when using tear-off to view
a form.
