Tips for using continuous paper
l You can adjust the top-of-form position temporarily. Open the
printer cover and turn the gear marked by + and - signs to
adjust the position This adjustment is lost when you turn off the
printer or feed the paper backward to the paper-park position by
pressing the FORM
FEED and FONT buttons at the same time.
l If you want to change the top-of-form position permanently,
adjust it with the default-setting mode.
l Each time you turn on the printer with paper loaded, it reverses
the continuous paper to the paper-park position and then
advances it to the next top-of-form. Always remove your printed
sheets before you turn off the printer to keep the top-of-form
position accurate.
Removing the push tractor
1. Tear off any printed pages. Press the
FORM FEED and FONT
buttons at the same time to feed the remaining paper backward
to the paper-park position Remove the paper from the push
tractor.
CAUTION: Always tear off the printed document and
excess paper before feeding paper backward. Never feed
more than one page backward through the printer.
2. Turn off the printer.
3. Lower the paper-release lever to the single sheet position. Then
pull the push tractor straight down and out of the printer.
4. Replace the
paper guide.
Switching Between Continuous Paper and Single
When you use the push tractor, you can easily switch to single-sheet
printing without removing the continuous paper supply.
Switching to single sheets
Here’s how to switch from continuous paper to single sheets:
1. If you have a printed document stilI in the printer, tear off the
printed pages and then press the FORM FEED and FONT buttons at
the same time to reverse the remaining paper back to the paper-
park position.
CAUTION:
l Always tear off printed pages before feeding paper
backward; feeding too many sheets backward can
cause a paper jam.
l Never feed labels backward. They can easily peel off of
their backing and jam the printer.
2. Lower the paper-release lever to the single-sheet position.
