Setting Up Dual Push Forms Paths

This forms path configuration lets you alternate between the Front Push and Rear
Push forms paths. You can have forms loaded in the Front Push position and
additional forms loaded in the Rear Push position, or you can have the same type
of forms loaded in both positions. If the same type of forms are loaded in both
forms paths and you want the printer to alternate automatically from Front Push to
Rear Push or vice versa, set Sequence=FR+RR in the Power On Configuration
Menu (see "Configuring Printer for Linking Dual Push" on page 59).
If you have different forms types loaded in the Front Push forms path than in the
Rear Push forms path, the operator or the job must ensure that the correct forms
path is used. See "Parking One Continuous Form and Loading Another (Dual
Push)" on page 59.
Figure 36 on page 58 shows the Dual Push forms paths with Manual Sheet Feed.
