edge guides

Note:

Always close the printer cover before printing. The printer does not print when the cover is open.

10.Turn on the printer. You may need to check and change the printer driver settings. When the printer receives data, it automatically loads the paper and starts printing. The printed pages are fed over the paper guide toward the back of the printer.

After you finish printing, follow the steps in the next section to tear off your printed document. If the first printed line on your page appears too high or low, you can fix this using the micro adjust feature as described in “Adjusting the Top-of-Form Position” on page 22.

Caution:

Never use the knob to adjust the top-of-form position while the printer is turned on; this may damage the printer or cause it to lose the top-of-form position. The knob can be used when the printer is turned off only.

Removing the printed document from the front push tractor

To remove the printed document, follow these steps:

1.Make sure the Tear/Off Bin lights are flashing. (This indicates that your paper is at the current tear-off position.) You may need to press the Tear Off/Bin button to advance the paper to the tear-off position.

2.Open the paper guide cover, and tear off the printed document using the tear-off edge of the printer.

Note:

If the paper perforation is not properly aligned with the tear-off edge, you can adjust the tear-off position using the micro adjust feature. See “Adjusting the tear-off position” on page 23.

Caution:

Never use the knob to adjust the tear-off position while the printer is turned on; this may damage the printer or cause it to lose the tear-off position. The knob can be used when the printer is turned off only.

3. Close the paper guide cover.

When you resume printing, the printer automatically feeds the paper back to the top-of-form position and starts printing.

To remove the remaining paper from the printer, press the Load/Eject button to feed the paper backward to the standby position. Then open the sprocket covers of the tractor and remove the paper.

Caution:

Always tear off your printed document before you press the Load/Eject button. Reverse feeding several pages at a time may cause a paper jam.
