ILOADING AND PARKING FANFOLD FORMS

I

/

Fanfold forms have holes along the sides and perforations between the sheets. They are also called sprocket forms, punched forms, or just plain “computer paper”. This printer accepts forms up to 10” wide. This section will take you through the procedures for loading, parking and unparking fanfold forms.

Loading the paper from the rear of the printer

You can load the fanfold paper either from the rear or from the bottom of the

printer. If you are going to load the paper from the bottom, refer to the next - section.

1. Place a stack of fanfold paper behind and at least one page-length below the printer.

2. Turn the printer’s power OFF.

3. Push the release lever forward. This has the effect of releasing the paper from the platen roller, and engaging the tractor feed.

4. Remove the paper guide and put it aside for the moment.

5. Remove the rear cover using the two grips on either side, and push back- wards as in Figure l-11.
