SET UP
Here's howto install the tractor-feed mechanism:
1. Remove the printer cover.
2.
Push in the two release levers on the back of each end
and place the plastic hooks on the bottom of the tractor
into the tabs on the printer (see Figure 1-8).
3.
Set the tractor unit on top of the printer as shown in
the illustration. When you let go of the release levers, the
tractor locks into place.
4.
Install the paper supports and space them evenly on the
tractor unit.
You can leave the printer cover off for now to load the
continuous paper described in the next section.
Figure 1-8.
Continuous paper can be loaded through the rear of the
printer, just behind the platen (explained below), or
through the bottom of the printer (see the next section on
bottom-feeding the printer).
Let's first load continuous paper from the rear of the
printer. Here's how:
1. Remove the printer cover (if installed).
2.
Turn power switch off and slide the print head to the
centre position.
3.
Move the paper select lever forward and open the
tractor covers.
4.
Flip the locking levers forward and adjust the tractors to
the approximate paper width. Adjust the paper supports so
that they are evenly spaced.
