Pull Tractor; Loading Paper With The Push Tractor And The Optional Pull Tractor - Epson LQ-2170 User Manual

Pull Tractor

The optional pull tractor (C80032 ) provides optimum continuous
paper handling. (The asterisk ( ) is a substitute for the last digit of
the product number, which varies by country.)
The pull tractor is especially useful with continuous multipart
forms. For best results, use the optional pull tractor along with
your standard tractor installed in the front push tractor position.
See Chapter 2 for instructions.
Note:
You cannot remove the rear push tractor. When you load continuous
paper from the front paper path with the pull tractor on top, you can
install the optional pull tractor in the pull tractor position.
