Changing tractor positions

You can use the tractor unit as either a push tractor or a pull
tractor. You should change the tractor position according to your
paper feeding method. The printer comes with the tractor installed
in the push-tractor position.
Installing in the push-tractor position

the paper guide up and off the printer.
2. If necessary, remove the tractor from the pull-tractor position
by pressing the lock tabs open while lifting the tractor up and
out of the mounting slots.
Press open the tractor's lock tabs. Hold the tractor horizontally
3.
above the printer and lower it straight down into the printer's
back mounting slots.
4. When the tractor is positioned in the mounting slots, release the
lock tabs.
If you removed the clear plastic paper-tension unit previously,
5.
replace it by placing it on the printer's mounting pegs; then
