DMP 207  (260-2917)       Top-Of-Form Adjustment       Faxback Doc. # 9790

You never need to use the paper feed knob for setting the top-of-form or
for feeding paper.  The only time you need to use it is to clear a paper
jam.  All changes to the variable top-of-form can be made with the top-of-
form fine adjustment feature.  You can make minute modifications to the
top-of-form by following these steps:

1.  Load paper into automatic sheet feeder.

2.  With the printer off line, press the LOAD/PARK key once.  The
    automatic sheet feeder loads a single sheet into the printer and
    automatically advances the paper to the top-of-form.

3.  Press the ON/OFF LINE key to set the printer on line.

4.  Press and hold the TOP key for more than two seconds.  The ON LINE and
    POWER/PAPER OUT indicators flash to let you know you have entered the
    top-of-form fine adjustment mode.

    If these indicators flash alternately, the top-of-form adjustment is
    currently set to the default, which is zero.  If these indicators
    flash at the same time, the top-of-form adjustment is currently set to
    a value other than the default.

    The factory default setting for the top-of-form adjustment is zero. 
    This leaves the top of form at its factory default of approximately
    one inch from the edge of the paper.

5.  Press the LOAD/PARK key to adjust the paper upwards in 1/60-inch
    increments.  Press the LF/FF key to adjust the paper downwards in
    1/60-inch increments.

    You can adjust the top-of-form -50/60 inch to +120/60 inch.

    NOTE:  If you want to print on the first line on the paper, set the
           top-of-form to -50/60 inch by press the LOAD/PARK key to adjust
           the paper upwards to the first line.

6.  Save your new top-of-form by pressing the ON/OFF LINE key.  The ON
    LINE and POWER/PAPER OUT indicators flash to indicate the new setting
    has been saved.  If you do not save it, the new top-of-form setting
    will be lost when the printer is turned off.

    NOTE:  You can set different top-of-forms for single sheets and
           continuous paper (if you have installed the optional tractor
           unit).  The DMP 207 determines which to-of-form to use by the
           position of the tractor lever.

When the top-of-form is set between -20 and -50, printing is subject to
the following limitations.

    Print quality in the top 1/2 inch of the page may not be as good as
    the rest of the page.  This depends on the type of paper used and the
    contents of the text or graphics printed.

    Depending on the type of paper used, occasional paper feeding problems
    may occur.

    To avoid paper feeding problems, at no time should text or graphics be
    printed on the first or last 1 inch (10 characters at 10 cpi) of the
    first two lines of the page.
