Printing on Fan-Fold Media

Printing on fan-fold media requires you to set the media hangers in position.

1. Open the top cover.

2. With a sample of your media, adjust the media hangers to the width of the media. The hangers should just touch, but not restrict, the edges of the media.

3. Lock the hangers and guides into position by sliding the lock forward.

4. Insert the media through the slot at the rear of the printer.

5. Run the media between the hangers and through the guides.

6. Close the top cover.
