Loading Multi-Part Forms

You can use carbonless multi-part forms of up to six parts (five copies on top of the original). Make sure you set the paper thickness lever to the proper position based on the number of layers in your form.

Except for setting the paper thickness lever, you load multi-part forms the same way as ordinary paper. For details, see the sections on loading continuous paper later in this chapter.

Note:

oBe sure your multi-part forms do not exceed 0.46 mm (0.018 inch) in thickness.

oDo not load paper that is curled or has been folded.

oThick paper, such as multi-part forms with five or six parts, requires a straight paper path to avoid paper jams. Load thick paper in the front or bottom slots.

Loading Continuous Paper With Labels

When printing on labels, use only the type of labels that are mounted on continuous backing sheets with sprocket holes for use with a tractor feeder. Do not try to print on single sheets with labels because the printer may not feed labels on a shiny backing sheet properly.

Thick paper, such as continuous paper with labels, requires a straight or almost straight paper path. You can load labels in the front (push tractor or pull tractor) or bottom (pull tractor) paper slot; however, for best results, use the tractor in the pull position, and load paper in the front or bottom paper slot.
