Loading Multipart Forms You can use carbonless multipart forms of up to five parts (four
copies in addition to the original). Make sure you set the paper
thickness lever to the proper position based on the number of
layers in your form.
For best results with thick paper, such as multipar t forms, select
a straight or almost straight paper path. It is best to load multipart
forms using the front or bottom slot and the pull tractor.
Except for setting the paper thickness lever, you load multipart
forms the same way you load ordinary continuous paper. For
details, see the sections on loading continuous pa per earlier in this
chapter.
Note:
❏Be sure your multipart forms do not exceed 0.39 mm (0.015 inch)
in thickness for the printable area and 0.76 mm (0.030 inch) for the
perforated edges.
❏Do not load paper that is damaged, curled, or wrinkled.
❏If you are using crimp bound paper, be sure the protruding side of
the crimp faces away from the print head when you print. Hitting
the crimp protrusion with print head could severely damage the
print head.
