Paper parking
After loading fanfold paper, you do not have to unload it when you
want to print on a single sheet. The printer will "park" it for you if you
follow the procedure below.
1. Paper parking starts with power ON, fanfold paper loaded in printing
position, the release lever up, and the bail lever back.
2. Press the On Line switch on the control panel to set the printer off-line
(On Line indicator off).
3. Tear off the printed form at the last perforation, leaving not more than
about half a page showing above the top cover. If necessary, press the
Paper Feed switch to feed paper
f~rward
until a perforation is located
just above the top cover, and tear there.
4. Press the Print Pitch switch on the control panel and hold it down.
5. Still holding the Print Pitch switch down, press the Paper Feed switch.
The printer will automatically feed the fanfold form backward until the
paper is completely free of the platen .
