Switching Between Continuous Paper and Single Sheets
When using the tractor, you can easily switch between
continuous paper and single sheets (including envelopes or
postcards) without removing the continuous paper from the
tractor.

Switc hing t o single sheet s

To switch from continuous paper to single sheets, follow the
steps below.
1. When you have finished printing on continuous paper, press
the Tear Off button to advance the paper to the tear-off
position. (If you selected auto tear-off in the SelecType
mode or the EPSON Remote! utility, the printer advances
the paper perforation to the tear-off position automatically.)
2. Tear off the printed pages.
cCaution:
❑Always tear off paper before feeding it backwards;
feeding too many sheets backwards can cause a paper
jam.
❑Never feed labels backward using the Load/Eject
button, Tear Off button, or knob on the right side of
the printer. Labels can easily peel off their backing and
jam the printer. For information on removing labels
from the paper path, see page 3-26.
3. Press the Load/Eject button to feed the conti nuous paper
back to the standby position. The paper is still attached to
the tractor, but is no longer in the paper path.
