Chapter 3Using your printer

Loading paper

The NX-2480 Rainbow/Colour can print on avariety of
paper types, as explained below:
Cut sheet paper
The NX-2480 Rainbow/Colourcan use single sheets of
paper (cut sheets) or letterheadedstationery. Use the fri-
ctionfeed or the optional SF-10DW automatic sheet feeder.
Fanfold paper
It can also accept fanfold (continuous) computer statio-
nery. Fanfold stationery has the sheets joined together,
with perforations between sheets, and holes (“sprocket
holes”) along each edge to help the printer grip the
paper. You should not print too close to the sprocket
holes. Otherwise, you run the risk ofjamming the paper
in the printer.
Multi-part forms
You can print continuous multi-part forms which are
either carbon backed or pressure-sensitive carbonless
(NCR), with up to five copies (including the top copy). If
you use multi-part forms, we suggest that you feed them
through the bottom paper feed slot, as this will help to
prevent premature separation of the forms. There
should be adifference in thickness of not more than
0.05mm between the side edges.
Note: If you use multi-part sets, set up the Multi-Part setting using
the Electronic DIP switches as described in “B5 and B6 -Multi-
part mode” on page 58.
