Manual loading

It is also possible to load paper manually while the printer’s power is off. The procedure is:

1.Place the paper guide in position by inserting the tabs, located on the bottom of the assembly, into the slots on the rear cover of the printer.

2.Check that printer power is off and the release lever is back.

3.Adjust the paper guides to match the size of paper you will be using. Remember that printing will start some distance from the left-hand edge of the carriage.

4.Place a single sheet between the guides, placing the side on which you want to print towards the back of the printer. Gently push the paper down in the guides until you feel it stop.

5.Turn the platen knob clockwise until the front edge of the paper comes out from under the top cover.

6.If the paper is not straight, move the release lever forward, then straighten the paper by hand and move the release lever back.
