Printing on Special Paper

In addition to printing on single sheets and continuous paper, your printer can also print on a wide variety of paper types, such as labels and multi-part forms. Before printing on special types of paper, you may need to change the paper-thickness setting.

CAUTION: When printing on labels or multi-part forms, make sure that your application program settings keep the printing entirely within the printable area.

Always return the lever to position 2 when you go back to printing on ordinary paper.

The paper-thickness lever

Change the position of the paper-thickness lever as follows:

1.Turn off the printer.

2.Remove the tractor cover or the printer cover.

WARNING: If the printer was used recently, the print head may be hot. Let it cool before attempting to move it.

3.Slide the print head to the middle of the printer.
