Selecting a Paper Feeding Method

Your printer comes with four paper paths so that you can print on almost any type of paper:

•Choose the top or front paper guide to print on single sheets

•Choose the tractor unit to load continuous paper from the front, rear, or bottom.

You can mount the tractor unit in three different positions to suit your particular needs: use it as a front push-tractor, rear push- tractor, or top pull-tractor.

Once you select a feeding method, you simply set the paper- release lever, load your paper, and print. You can even print on single sheets without removing your continuous paper supply.

Setting the paper-release lever

You set the paper-release lever to determine the active paper path in your printer. The printer automatically loads paper from the position you choose. The figure below shows which setting to use for single sheets and the various tractor positions.
