Selecting and Loading Forms

Note: A form is not considered “loaded” by merely placing the

form in the tractors. To prevent printing on the wrong

form, the printer must be made aware of what form(s)

are currently loaded. When a new form is placed in the

tractors, the form must be “loaded” using the control

panel as described in the next section, “Loading a New

or Different Form in the Tractors”.

Selecting a Form Already Loaded in the Tractors

To select a form that is already loaded in the tractors, take the printer off

line and press the FORM SELECT button until that form is displayed (a form

that is not considered to be loaded will flash <Not Loaded> on the

bottom line of the display). The form selection will be displayed as FORM

0 through FORM 9 or as the actual name of the form if that has been set

up.

To position the form for printing, you may press the FORM FEED button

which will position the form, or you may press the ONLINE button which will

both position the form and place the printer on line.

Loading a New or Different Form In the Tractors

This section describes how to “load” a form in the tractors. This involves

physically placing the paper or form in the tractor mechanism and then

informing the printer that the new form is present.

indicator should now be flashing red.

form from the print position down to the tractors for removal. In the
