Figure 2.4.4C—Loading paper into the printer
4. While holding the paper in place behind the rubber roller, manually turn
the thumbwheel to advance the paper approximately one inch. Never press
the [FEED] button while the Head-Up lever is in the up position. See Note 2
at the end of this section.
5. Center the paper on the rubber roller. Visually inspect the paper path to
ensure that the paper advances smoothly without hitting the edges of the
printer. If necessary, manually pull on the end of the paper until the paper is
centered and does not hit the edges of the printer.
6. Place the Head-Up lever into the down position.
7. Please read the caution note below before proceeding.
Press the [FEED] button to advance the paper. Continue pressing it until the
paper advances smoothly. The back tension device should automatically
correct a misaligned paper feed.
If the paper is not aligned properly, it may “krinkle” on one edge. If the
paper continues to krinkle after feeding 12 inches, place the Head-Up lever
into the
up position and repeat steps 5 thought 6.
CAUTION—Do not allow the paper to feed back into the rubber roller. It
may be necessary to use your fingers to guide paper out and away from the
rubber roller. If the paper has a severe curl, it may have a tendency to roll
back under the rubber roller and cause a paper jam. If this occurs, stop feed-
ing the paper immediately, remove it from the roller, and reload the paper.
