Paper Handling

This chapter covers the basic instructions you need to load and use
continuous paper, single sheets, and special paper such as multipart
forms and labels.

Printing on Continuous Paper

You can print on continuous paper using the tractor in either the push or
pull position:
❏
Use the tractor in the push position if you want to be able to switch
between printing on single sheets and continuous paper without
removing the paper supply, or if you will be tearing off continuous
paper sheet-by-sheet. (Follow the instructions in the next section.)
The printer comes with the tractor installed in the push position.
❏
Use the tractor in the pull position if you will be printing on labels,
multipart forms, or other documents that require a precise print
position. (See "Printing with the pull tractor" on page 20 for
instructions.)

Printing with the push tractor

Follow these steps to load continuous paper on the push tractor:
1. Turn off the printer.
2. Remove the printer cover and the paper guide, and pull the paper
release lever forward to the continuous paper position.
