LOADING AND PARKING FANFOLD FORMS

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 16” wide. Fanfold forms
are loaded, parked, and unparked as explained next.
Loading the fanfold forms
You can load the fanfold paper from the rear of the printer.
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 to the upward position. 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 rearcover. Grip it by its rear edge and lift upwards and back-
wards as in Figure 1-12.
