OPERATING

Reloading Paper

While feeding occurs from a higher tray, lower ones may be reloaded without interrupting feeding and printing. To reload paper, please refer to "Loading Paper ". Once the tray is replenished with paper and closed, TowerFeed will resume feeding.

Out of Paper

If a TowerFeed tray runs out of paper, the yellow indicator on its front panel is lit.

TowerFeed will also indicate the Paper-Out condition by beeping as soon as the empty tray is selected. Paper-Out beeping can only be cleared by opening the selected empty tray, reloading paper and closing the tray. Closing the empty tray will activate the Paper-Out beeping again (see Appendix C – Troubleshooting).

TowerFeed will stop feeding and the printer will stop printing until the selected empty tray is replenished with paper.

Paper Jam

Paper Jam in the Printer

In case of a paper jam in the printer, please refer to the printer operating manual on how to clear the jam in the printer. After closing the printer cover, TowerFeed will automatically feed another sheet and the printer will resume printing.

Paper Jam in TowerFeed (TowerFeed generates beeps in regular intervals)

If a paper jam TowerFeed occurs in the TowerFeed, the printer panel shows a respective error message and TowerFeed will generate beeps in regular intervals (see page 21, TF Beep Types). It will stop feeding and wait for operator intervention. Beeping will continue until a TowerFeed tray is opened.

Note:

First open the top-most TowerFeed tray for at least 5 cm (2") to stop TowerFeed beeping and prevent additional feed cycles.

Open each of the TowerFeed trays to locate the jammed paper.

Remove the jammed paper.

Do not close the top-most tray until the paper jam has been cleared.

Close now the top-most tray to indicate that feeding can restart.

TowerFeed will automatically re-feed the same kind of paper as requested before the jam.
