Set Top of Form (TOF)
General Information
The default top of form is set in the printer menu.
The factory default for TOF is 1/4-inch (6.4 mm), equivalent to the distance
down from the top of the sheet to the horizontal midpoint of the first line of
printed characters. TOF.jpg
You can establish one custom TOF setting for each feed path (Top Cut Sheet
and Rear Continuous Form) and store it in the printer’s memory. This
selection will then automatically appear as the setting for TOF for the
corresponding group in the Menu.
You can also use the control panel switches to set a temporary TOF for one
sheet or one continuous form.

Printhead Gap
Adjusting the Head Gap
The head gap is the distance between the printhead and the platen roller.
When you use envelopes or multipart forms, you need to have a larger gap
than when using plain paper. Use the recommended head gap to ensure the
best print quality and easy paper feed.
CAUTION!
Incorrect setting of the head gap can cause printhead damage
or ribbon jams. To avoid these problems set the head gap for
the type of media being used.
