Using Short Tear-Off - Epson 1010 User Manual

Using Short Tear-off

When you are finished printing, the short tear-off feature
automatically feeds the perforation of the continuous paper to the
tear-off edge of the printer cover so that you can tear off the last
sheet. When you resume printing, the paper feeds backward to the
loading position. This feature lets you save the paper normally lost
between documents.
To use this feature, set DIP switch 2-2 to on. Then load continuous
paper in the normal way.
You can leave the short tear-off feature turned on (DIP switch 2-2 on)
even when you are using single sheets. When you move the paper
release lever to the singlesheet position, the short tear-off feature is
disabled.
CAUTION:
Otherwise, labels may come off their backing and jam the
printer.
When you have finished printing, and if the perforation is at the top
of form position, the printer automatically feeds the perforation of
the continuous paper to the tear-off edge of the printer cover. You
can then tear off the page using the tear-off edge as shown on the
next page.
Never use short tear-off with labels.
