Paper Handling
Problem Solution
Continuous paper does
not feed properly
(continued).
The paper feed is
crooked or the paper
jams (continued).
Regular gaps occur in
the printout.
Skip over perforation
does not function.
The sprocket lock levers may be unlocked,
or the sprocket covers may be open.
Position the sprocket units to match the
width of your paper. Then, lock them in
place by pressing the sprocket lock levers
away from you. See Chapter 2.
The paper guide may be in the upright
position. When using continuous paper,
make sure that the paper guide is in the
lowered position so that it can act as a
paper separator. See Chapter 2.
The paper thickness lever may be in the
wrong position. For printing on ordinary
paper, always set the lever to position 2.
The paper dimensions may exceed the
specified limitations. Use only paper sizes
that are within the specified range. Your
printer can print on continuous multi-part
forms consisting of 1 original and 1 or 2
copies. See Chapter 8.
Skip over perforation may be interfering
with your application program settings. Set
DIP switch 2-3 to off.
You may not have turned off the power
after setting DIP switch 2-3 to on. To make
new DIP switch settings effective, turn the
power off, then on again.
