Operation guide sheet | Seiko Group BP-9000 manual

1. Introduction

❏Operation guide sheet

The operation guide sheet helps you to operate some of the basic options on the front control panel. You can peel the adhesive backed paper and stick it anywhere on your printer for convenience.

❏Precaution for extra-thick paper usage

Extra-thick continuous paper, especially 9-part multi-layer paper may get jammed in the printer due to its stiffness and inflexibility. When using such paper, set the paper rack in the slant position shown in the figure.
