Loading Media for Fanfold Printing

Use the sample of fanfold media provided in the Media Envelope to complete
the following procedures. In fanfold printing, you place a stack of fanfold
media at the rear of the printer and feed it into the printer through a slot in the
rear cover. Refer to Chapter 2, "Operating the Printer," for instructions on
loading rolls of media.

to the outer end of the supply post.
4. Place the fanfold media slightly lower than the slot in the printer back
cover. Line the (box of) fanfold media up with the label path through the
