Multipart forms

You can use continuous or single-sheet carbonless multipart forms of up to five parts (one original plus four copies). Follow these guidelines:

Set the paper thickness lever to the correct position for your forms. See page 29.

Use continuous multipart forms that are joined only by spot gluing or side-crimping. Never load continuous multipart forms joined by metal staples, tape, or continuous gluing.

Use single-sheet multipart forms that are line-glued only at the top. Insert the forms glued-edge-first into the printer.

Make sure that multipart forms are not wrinkled.

If you need to adjust the loading position, use your application software or change the loading position as described under “Adjusting the top-of-form position” on page 23.

When you use side-crimped continuous multipart forms, the copies may not align with the original. If this happens, raise the paper guide.

For multipart forms, you should not print any closer than 0.5 inch (13 mm) from either side of the paper.
