Parking fanfold paper

It is not necessary to remove fanfold paper currently loaded in the printer in order to print on cut-sheet paper. Instead, simply use the following procedure to park the fanfold paper.

o Tear off the paper at a perforation so there is no more than half a page sticking out of the front cover of the printer.

If necessary, you can press the control panel’s ON LINE button to put the printer off-line. and then use the LINE FEED button to feed the paper until a perforation isjust past the front cover.

o Press the control panel’s ON LINE button to put the printer off-line. o Press the control panel’s SET/EJECT/PARK button. The printer

automatically reverse feeds the fanfold paper until it is no longer in contact with the platen, which is indicated by the printer beeping a number of times. Also, the control panel’s POWER indicator starts to flash because paper is not loaded.

o Move the release lever to the cut-sheet position. o Change the paper guide to its upright position.

You can now load cut-sheet paper into the printer using the procedures under “Manual sheet feeding” on page 44.

Unparking fanfold paper

After you are finished printing on cut-sheet paper, use the following procedure to unpark fanfold paper and make it available for printing.

o Press the SET/EJECT/PARK button to feed the paper to the starting position.
