Continuous Paper Does Not Feed Properly - Epson LQ-300 User Manual

Continuous paper does not feed properly

The tractor does not feed the paper.
Check that the paper-release lever is pulled forward to the
continuous paper position. If not, move the lever to the correct
position.
The paper may have come off the tractor. Reattach the paper to
the tractor.
Paper feeding is crooked or the paper jams.
Make sure the paper guide is in the upright position.
The position of your paper supply may be preventing it from
feeding straight. Make sure the paper supply is not obstructed.
Make sure your paper supply is positioned within 1 meter
(3 feet) of the printer.
Make sure the printer cover is closed.
Make sure the edge guide positions are correct. Position the
edge guides at the diamond-shaped guide marks.
Check that the holes on the sides of the paper are aligned with
each other. Also, make sure the sprocket units are locked and
their covers are closed.
Check that the paper size and thickness are within the specified
range. See the paper specifications in the Appendix.
