Loading Paper

P6000L/P6200L Series printers use standard fanfold paper from 3 to 16 inches wide and 15 to
100 lb bond (0.025 inches thick maximum). To load paper, perform the following steps and refer
to Figure 2-10.
1.
Place the printer offline and raise the top cover.
2.
Fully raise the Forms Thickness Adjustment Lever (A).
3.
Open both tractor gates (B) by swinging them out.
4.
On floor cabinet models, open the front cover and feed the paper up through the paper
slot (C) from below. On pedestal models, feed the paper up through the paper slot (C) in
the pedestal or table from below. On both models, push the paper up until it appears
above the ribbon mask (D). If the paper snags, fold the top edge down before feeding.
5.
Load the paper on the tractor sprockets (E); close the tractor gates (B). If necessary to
slide the right tractor to remove paper slack or to adjust for various paper widths, release
the right tractor lock (F) by raising or lowering it to the center; slide the tractor into posi
tion. After positioning the tractor, lock it in place.
NOTE: The left tractor should remain locked in alignment with the number 1" on the
paper scale to set the left margin with the first character space.
